. Well I disagree mindy I have been using mag pumps since 2002 and not once did I have a problem. I guess I got a crappy pump. And they do have a great track record actually inline they recommend that they run in the water to assist in keeping it cool. And they also help in heating the water 1-2 degrees


Just sayin

I am setting up Waveline DC5000 right now on my 120 gallons tank. Very quiet. I like the soft start after feeding the fish.

That's fine. It works for you, and that's what matters for you.

I used Mag pumps for mixing salt for several years, but they are all dead now. RIP.

Mindy after looking at my post maybe I sounded rude. really sorry if it came out that way. I meant for it to be as I was lucky in having mag pumps in my reefing career as a positive note.

sorry

Oh no, not at all Mike. After all these years I know you're not like that.
