Best pump for reefer 250

[Weikel]

So I am looking into getting a new tank. This is going to be my first non nano in some years so I was wondering what pumps people are liking now a days.. I would rather keep it under 200 bucks so I can spend more money on mp40s.. oh and I think red sea recommends a flow of 650..

If you're not running anything else off of it, the RO Varios-2. If you're going to run any rectors off of it, then the Varios-4.

If you're not familiar with them, RO is Reef Octopus. That will help you find them on the forum.

Lol yea I just found it.. I didn't know what the to part is.. looking at the pump curve and with a 4 foot head i think I might want the bigger one to get the recommended flow..
