anyone tried to using Jebo WP40?

[Sacohen]

My WP-40 came from FS and my WP-25 came directly from Jebao via a GB.

I would agree that the bulk of people that have ordered have gotten them from FS if not a GB. There have been very few problems reported with the pumps in general, but the majority of issues have been on pumps purchased from FS, but that is only because they seem to be the majority retailer.

I can say that FS has been very good about replacing parts or the entire pump if needed if there proves to be a problem with the manufacturing of the unit.

Thank you for the info Steve. Will likely order mine this week. Just debating between the Wp-40 or the 60 for a 210G. Do you know if the wp60 is louder or about the same?

 

[Sacohen]

I have not seen or heard the 60, but I've read they are just as quiet.

Would a WP-25 be too much for a 20G even throttled down?

 

[Sacohen]

Probably. I don't think you can throttle it back that much. You should wait for th WP10.

Mine always return to full power after its monthly 5 minute clean, going on 3 months already.

The wp25 is too much for the 20g.

If I clean both my wp40 and wp25 The same day it's too much for my 90 for about a week.

Going to have to start cleaning one every two weeks on a rotation instead of cleaning them both once a month.

Noticed this thread and wanted to share that I found a great deal on WP-25s from Reef Radiance. They have a sale going on through midnight. Also plenty of deals on their LED fixtures!

Yeah I have both and sound is about the same.

Actually with ddavies564 modification you can throttle back the pump to zero. So it should work on the WP25,40,60.

 

[Sacohen]

What was ddavies564 modification. I don't recall seeing that.
Can you post the link to his post?

Thanks. I do remember seeing that post now, I had forgotten about it. Sorry.

how many of the WP40 should I use for a 300DD? 72x36x27

 

[Sacohen]

I've never had a tank that large so I'm not 100% sure,but I;m thinking 4 WP-40's or 2-3 WP-60s.

It depends on placement and the flow you want.

 

[wgraham]

I have 2 wp60 and 2 wp40 on a 300 gallon 72 x 30 x 30. One wp60 on my tank in w1 mode will make waves by itself. I kept 3 on else and one of the wp60 on w1 about half way on the dial

Four should work. I have four Tunze 6125s (3400 gph).

wow that sounds like a lot of water movement. I was going to order 1 wp-40(or a 60) for my 220. will one pump suffice ? keep in mind this is a fowlr.

 

[NeveSSL]

For FOWLR, yes. For reef, no.
