very jealous. I'm holding out for the controllable ones in December. Or at least I'm trying hard. How are you liking the flow?

It looks to be a great product. I'm considerring 2 of the controllable ones for my 65!


Have you had a chance to play with it? What do you think ?!?

68 bucks, can't beat that and it comes with a magnet holder to boot! I probably won't use it for a few weeks. Im building the cube tank right now. stand and plumbing stuff that is

I put it on my frag tank to try it out. I'm very impressed with the flow and the unit as a whole!

i just put mine on salty critter has more i pointed it straight at my seio 620 and it all but eliminated the other pump this this is super cool magnets are real powerfull 61.50 can not beat it

 

[stevestank]

Does the magnet drive the prop? Is the cord situated outside the tank?

 

[Kreeger1]

Its just like a powerhead, no difference. This is not like a ice cap pump its just a smaller neater version of the bigger stream pumps.
7 watts to run it, thats what Im talking about !!!

No I didn't get any... YET. The pic is from Phishy Business forums on reefcentral. Those look like a nice solution for those of use who don't need the 2,000 gph flow of a full-sized stream. I might be acquiring a 37g cube so maybe soon enough I will need one or two of them
I like it when people cut the overflows and insert the streams from the back. (kind of like a mini closed loop.) Those little ones are a nice size. It's nice of them to include the magnets. They usually cost as much as these pumps cost.

watch out the magnets are DANGEROUS and i have the black and blue pinch marks to prove it. and don't underestimate their power- my 40b was a sandstorm until i got them posited just right. the only other bad thing i can say is they are slightly more noisy than i had expected, not terrible by any-mean but still a good background hum. maybe there is a break-in period. other than those minor issues they defiantly live up to the hype!
