Main pump

[Haimat]

Hi fellow reefers,

I am about to upgrade my main pump, since my Eheim 1262 is too small for my system. Anyway, I've consider two pumps:
- Aqua Medic Eco Runner 9000 (9000 l/h)
og
- Tunze Silence Pro (11000 l/h)

What do you think? Any experiences, although they both are quite new models.

Thanks!

I dont have experience with the Eco Runner but I really like my Tunze pump. It is very quiet. cant really talk about longevity since mine is fairly new.

How big is your system? How much head loss?

How big is your system? How much head loss?

My system is 950 litres + 150 litres sump + 75 litres frag tank.

Head loss is no more than 1,5 metres. But the pump will be the main pump, pump to UV sterilizer and pump to biopellets reactor as well.


Thanks for answers!
