I have one of those and one for my skimmer. They work well enough, but my
Rio 2500s stopped restarting after three months like clockwork. This could
easily crash my tank if the power went off for a short time while I was at
work. I could have bought an Iwaki for the money I spent on replacement
pumps and impellers, and saved money.

Are there any Rio pump fans?

I have only one small rio pump powering my HOB refugium by CPR
and so far is it just "ok" I guess...
