What is this "good" report card thing you speak of. And "rewards" what is that about? Oh oh dwelling up those dark feelings of parental negligence again, "drink drink"!

My Poseidon kicks butt. I'd recommend those to anyone. I'm a fan of the inline pumps, not so much the drop ins.

Ditto ^
I have a Poseidon they're quite - but they add some heat to the system about 1C.

I agree the Eheims are great pumps however if you want a quiet reliable pump without the high price of an Eheim then look at the Ocean Runner pumps.
