What is even more amazing is the overall satisfaction of this first generation pump. Except in isolated incidents, we haven't seen general failure of this pump so far with increasing number of users. Some of us have been running this pump for almost 2 months. There is no reason to believe it will not last 1-2 years.

Do you think 2 of these would be too much for a 6' 150g tank?

I think 2 of them would be Moore then enough to give you enough deep coverage on a long tank

see whut i did there?

Are you saying they would be too much?

dread240 · 03/24/2013, 06:14 PM

no, I think it'd be perfect... but I had to figure some play on words for your avatar

james30ct · 03/24/2013, 06:20 PM

Ah, gotcha. Took a minute. Thanks for your help. Usually if something in this hobby seems too good to be true it is but there seems to be a lot of positive reviews on these.

dread240 · 03/24/2013, 06:22 PM

yea.. I haven't picked one up yet... but seriously considering it... I could grab 2 and flip my 6095 lol

mannydouhnut · 03/24/2013, 09:05 PM

Mine shipped Thursday but I am not getting a tracking number until Monday or Tuesday because their workers are currently very busy (not surprising these pumps are going like hot cakes). My Blue Throat Trigger pair are gonna love swimming in the current of this pump. Maybe I'll finally be able to take off my SCWD and get maximum flow out of my return pump. Can I mount the pump on the back wall and point the output to the right side of my tank or will it eventually pop off the bracket.

I mounted my pump this way and didn't have any problem in my 92g corner tank.

jrp1588 · 03/24/2013, 09:24 PM

I also have mine mounted that way now. Looks a lot better that way.

rrasco · 03/24/2013, 09:25 PM

I just ordered my second. My first one has not even shipped yet, but I figured I'll cash in on the pre-order discount while it exists. I really hope these two work out well for my 105 gallon, because I'm banking on being able to get rid of my MP40. I was going to try one out first, but what the heck, two it is. That should be more than enough according to the reports here.

BCAqua · 03/25/2013, 01:13 AM

Just ordered mine. So far I like what I see.

88rxna · 03/25/2013, 06:42 AM

i got a shipping notice last night with a tracking #.
must have gotten some plugs in? is the pre order still available?
how long did it take you people to yet yours after a shipping notice?

88rxna · 03/25/2013, 07:06 AM

pre order is over i think? i just checked the website and i dont see it.

rrasco · 03/25/2013, 08:06 AM

Yeah, looks like they are in stock again. Glad I ordered last night. The one I ordered on Friday shipped last night.

bluewater921 · 03/25/2013, 09:34 AM

RR i didnt the same thing .. i ordered 1 and went back and placed order for 1 more .. if i dont need it i will just sell it

jrp1588 · 03/25/2013, 09:49 AM

After running 1 in my 75 for a few days on full blast, I think it's perfect for my needs. I tried throwing my MP40 on the other side to see how 2 of these would do, and my 'nems and frogspawn weren't happy.

Now that I've played with the positioning of the pump, all detritus collects in a small pile which is easily siphoned out.

rrasco · 03/25/2013, 10:00 AM

I'm planning to run both of them dialed back. I don't like one point of flow, not random enough for me. If one is enough, well, thankfully I have more than one tank.

moatdaddy · 03/25/2013, 10:48 AM

where have you guys been getting yours and for how much. i could not find any on ebay

jrp1588 · 03/25/2013, 11:12 AM
