Well it appears the Jebao return pump I’m currently running on my 60 cube is on its way out and looking to order a new pump before it’s completly stopped working. Originally planned on ordering another Jebao but thought I’d see what other people’s opinions and suggestions are on replacements. Thanks in advance.

Excellent. Was just looking at those on Bulk Reef and was hoping someone would have input on them. 👍

One other thing i like, standard fittings !!!  I have mine on a union easy to take off.. forgot what size  lol. I have had pumps where you have a hard time finding the fittings for. Mine you can not hear at all. I think you will like it..

Excellent recommendation on the Reef Octopus Pump. Received and installed it on Friday and love it. Absolutely silent! The float switch it comes with lends that extra piece of mind I believe all reefers are fond of as well.

I've lost 5 of 7 Reef Octopus DC pumps.  3 within 1 year, 1 at 18 months and 1 at 24 months.  Ended up swapping everything to Ecotech recently.  Good luck lol
