IM Lagoon 50 powerhead upgrade question

gtp0083 · 02/10/2018, 10:34 AM

After a little over a year my Orbit loop IC eflux powerheads have lost some serious power. Cleaned vinegar bath monthly etc no luck on reviving.

So now I want to upgrade. Options I’m thinking of include either 2x Jebao pp-4 or 8(not sure which ones). Or Rossmont 900 with wavemaker.

Jebao is cost effective but have read reviews they won’t last much longer than the Orbit ones did. Also not sure which model to buy pp4 says 20-40g tanks with up to 1000gph. 8 is up to 2000gpg. When buying two which ones would be best? Mixed tank mostly lps with a few sps.

Or the Rossmont 900 series with wavemaker which would be $200 dollars more nearly $300.

Opinions?

No vortechs way out of my price range for 2 unless you can convince me I only need one

Thanks
