Check out ATB flowstar pump. It is identical as the Red Dragon except the cost is only half... I have the Flow star 3200 and i compare it with the Red dragon pump i can't find the different between the two. Even the screws is identical

Steve,
Where can I find spec and price for the ATB flowstar pump? Are they as silent as the RD? Compare to Eheim?

arent they just laguna maxflo pumps?... which are half the price of airstars

Go to ATB forum.... It is as quiet as the RD.... Casshern is right Flowstar is a heavily mod laguna pump....
