??? All of the MagDrive pumps I own (I have 3's driving my skimmers,
2 9's as return pumps, and a 5 for mixing and water transfer) are very quiet, and none of the models I own have what I would call a flimsy housing - they are very solid, and epoxy-filled.. The only drawback that I can see is that they do seem to impart some heat to the water - but being in Seattle, that is not really a bad thing ![]() Are these the ones you are talking about?? http://www.marinedepot.com/a_ph_danner.asp Note that there may be several different brands of pumps that use a magnetic impeller drive - maybe you are confusing it with some other brand?? Just puzzled. "Ian Mather" wrote in message news:AmKgb.43155$6C4.25291@pd7tw1no... The T3's put out allot of heat and I KNOW you'll end up needing a chiller. The Quiet ones are not Quiet and overheat way to easy (I am referring to the new and old models). I'd never do a mag drive..noisy, and some of the flimsiest housing I've ever seen, however they are cheap..but you get what you pay for. I personally would try an Eheim hobby pump maybe the 1261 or 1262. Unfortunately the Eheim pumps are not cheap...mine set me back a few hundred bucks. Just my 2 cents. Ian |
