ATB small which pump to get

[spsgtr]

I have the ATB small that came with the eheim 1260 needlewheel. anyone switch to the mini air flow (sicce syncra)? was the performance much better to justify buying the airflow? the pump ratings seems to be comparable. LMK. thanks.

I run the eheim and am pretty happy with it. Took a long time to fine tune but once I found the sweet spot its working like a charm

they told me it would make the performance much better. i was trying to figure out how much better the skimming would be. thanks for the help.

I think the Eheim 1260 needle wheel is a great pump for that skimmer. You could go with the new mini Airstar pump if you want to save a few watts. The air draw will be close to the same as the Eheim.
