i have just under 3.5"x7.5" to work with, and would like a 500+ gph controllable DC return pump for my AIO quarantine(Aquatop Recife Eco 40g). programmable would be even better.

anybody?
 
strong start, leader out front! $300 is a wee-bit steep but wouldn't kill me.

Oh yah. I got mine during a black Friday sale ($250). It's my belief the pump is the heart of the tank, so why spend a lil extra. I'll be glad to see what's you end it with.

since you were curious to see what i would end up with, i went with a Red Sea Reefer 170 lol.

I’m guessing the dimensions changed because my eco 40 return pump chamber is measuring 2.75x 7.5 it’s going to be difficult to find a stronger pump.
 
my small jabao has been bullet proof on my ca reactor, on its lowest setting for 5 years

I have the mighty jet 326 on the lowest setting on this very aquarium and it still seems too strong. What did you end up going with and did it work?
