aqua pump review

[guy35199]

I bought a lifegard aquatics phosphate reactor and the pump that comes with it is a rio plus 100 aqua pump. It is absolutely garbage replaced it twice under warranty within 3 months and decided to throw it away even though it had 9 months left on warranty because it costs more to ship it for warranty than what it's worth. I replaced it with the rio 600 which fits perfectly and its a night and day difference with great flow unlike the rio before that wouldn't flow at all. Just giving my .02 on what to replace the pump with if someone else encounters this same problem, plus the upgrade was $30, can't beat that.
