Thinking of picking up the Jebao DCP-3500 pump to use on a 40 breeder with 20 long sump. Does anyone have other recommendations or think this pump will work? I am having a hard time finding thee output size for the pump as I want to hard plumb. Any opinions or suggestions would be great!

I have 5 jebaos running currently. I think the smallest is a 5000 it comes with at least 1- 3/4" and 1-1". My guess is you should have the same in the 3500. They work fine in salt or fresh have them running in both. I think after the 8000 they also include a 11/4" and 11/2"

I used 2 jebao pumps for my freshwater tank for 6 years before I broke it down and have started switching over to saltwater. The pumps worked great. They come with multiple sized rings for different pvc pipe sizes.
Glad to hear then ran for that long. Heard they sometimes crap out early.

Did you end up going with this pump? I am considering it in my trigger 26 sump back into my nuvo 20.

Thanks!
I never got the chance to actually set this tank up since I started medical school this summer. However, I did run it for a leak test and it worked great, would definitely recommend it. Plus, it’s hard to beat the price.
