Accel Water Flow Accelerator review anyone?

dragonfisher33 · Jun 30, 2017

is there someone out there who purchase this line of product can chime in in their performance?

not a single review on Marine Depot and i find it odd.

Are you familiar with how a penductor works? It does what is says it does but there is a catch. These work best with a pressure pump. The upside is the small outlet in the penductor will pull additional water (approx 4x) with it to increase overall flow. Downside is the small outlet does not allow much water to pass through it. To get 660g of water through that penductor would require a monsterous pump.

When I would use one... When I want to increase flow in the tank but want to limit water going through the sump. This allows you to get a lot of flow in the tank without adding powerheads.

thank you for the explanation. i'm sure people can find that useful. i have penductor/eductor in my 40B but i wanted to see if anyone out there might have a feedback on this product line. but i guess my question is ambiguous.

dragonfisher they work well as a water accelerator. I run two of them for flow on my tanks . The tanks are 8 foot long 4 foot wide they provide plenty of flow .
