Re: Vortech pump.

Any experiment for Vortech pump users? Please share your thought. I plan to purchase 1 or 2.

Check Inland Reefer for more info. I think someone just bought two and in three days started to have problems with them.
I know Greg C. knows more about it.
Oh Greg where are you?

The vortech pump is a great idea that is designed around a tecnology that is known to have reliability issues. I'm sure you have read all the reviews saying how they have great customer service and all and the tremendous flow they provide. All I can say is that a 2 year old company should not already have a reputatuion as a company with good customer service, unless they produced a faulty product and have no choice but to have good customer service. Their survival as a start-up company depends on it. My advise is get the Tunze Streams, they are still the most reliable of those type pumps on the market.

Good advice Greg, The product is a great Idea but its way too new. The customer service thing reminds me of the Ice Caps first attempt at MH ballast/
