Looking to upgrade from a mag18
Id like to look at some of the new dc pumps. As the title says i have a mag18 and its atleast 5yrs old. I have one reactor and a small 5gal macro tank plumbed in to the return line. I have those on their own valving to regulate flow.
With that being said, its a 90gal mixed reef with a 40gal diy sump/fuge, 5gal macro tank, and one reactor(carbon). Although its an in wall tank the sump still sits below the tank. So max head height is about 5ft, which contains maybe about 7ft of 3/4" piping to get there. Not only is my mag18 older, but i would like to use it for my mixing station, while putting a new pump on the tank. I dont have any type of tank controllers, so basically im just wanting the dc pump for the basic soft startups, and energy savings. Any ideas?

I've been running a Speedwave DC for about 3 months with zero complaints. Very quiet.
