I have a 90g I'll be setting up. I just order a Q.O.6000 to use with a 3/4" SCWD with Loc-Line nozzels. Don't know how far along you but depending on when I get this pump I can maybe forward some information.

I have everything to set this baby up but the pump.

ddinox64, yes please do forward me the information. How much did you get the Q.O 6000 for and also I was looking into the mag 18 and the QO 9000. I think i read some where about the QO9000 is too loud. anyone out there using QO9000 at all thanks

I scored on Ebay for $73. It was a buy it now for $89 or $98 with free shipping. I noticed it also had "Make best offer". Seeing I had $73 in my PayPal account, I figured it's worth a shot. They took it. Not bad for a $116-$140 pump.

I see the push for Eheim1262 by everyone but seems low on gph and high on price tag. I gave a Q.O. 3000 and it's pretty dang quiet. Just visited a guy running a Q.O.6000 externally and it was very quiet. I'm hoping to get the same results. Quiet.

I opened up my 3/4 SCWD a little more too by drilling the I.D. bigger using a 1/2" bit. Funny thing is they say it's already 1/2" I.D. but I managed to get more flow through it. I also funnled the entrance of it to create a smother flow in so the water doesn't hit the walls of it but funnles into it.

I set it up in my garage to play with everything to dial it all in before moving in in the house. Can't wait to get pump to finish testing.
