michaelg February 10, 2004 February 10, 2004 Has anyone tried the new models? They have a lot of gph variations now. Considering for in line use. Do they run hot?
pez February 10, 2004 February 10, 2004 I have heard very bad things about them, but mine lasted 5+ year before it went belly up (ran dry for a number of hours). They do run very hot - no need for a heater when you have one. -T
AquariaUSA February 13, 2004 February 13, 2004 Michael, I have used several of the new pumps submersed, but the only one with gusto in my opinion is the 4000 pressure rated. The other ones will give some flow, but nothing like a mag would. If they are in sump, I would not worry, but doubt they run well externally/inline for the plastic housing just seems to me that it could leak (seal or no seal).
