Tunze feedback/recommendation

[Fishbulb2]

Hi Roger and Tunze.

I absolutely love my Tunze 6095 pumps. Powerful and quiet.

My recommendation would be to try and include a water resistant quick disconnect between the pump and controller. I'd love to be able to quickly remove the pumps to clean them at the sink with vinegar. But right now I have to dig through the stand and pull out the controller and everything. I'd be wonderful to have a fast way to jut disconnect the pump, clean it, and bring it back.

Cheers!

There is a disconnect inside the controller. The reason we don't do this is we have tried it before, exposed connectors despite the best intentions are universally a point of failure, they inevitably corrode, pins get bent, the contacts fail, this is why we avoid exposed plugs whenever possible. I generally just bring a bucket to the tank myself rather than hassling with the cables.
