Jebao DCS9000 return pump

[ejazzle]

Does anyone have any experience with the jebao dc return pumps? I was thinking about getting the dcs 9000 for my 57 rimless. I am over the mag 5. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Been using them for around 2yrs now and really like them. The 9000 is a large return for a 57g but you can dial it down quite a bit. I say go for it.

I use the dc9000 on my setup and not a single issue and I even bought it used :)
Just like any other pump keep it clean and it will go a long time

I use the dct6000 on my 125 gallon tank. I really like them. They are cheap enough that I actually purchased a complete spare and put it in my store room :)

I'm running a 6000 now and haven't had any issues for the 9 months the tank has been up. I clean it every 2-3 months. I also have a 9000 as a back up.

I'm running a DCS12000 on my 270 gallon display , and a DC6000 on my 80 frag with (2) deluxe BRS reactors. Have had the DC6000 for over a year, and DCS12000 for about 6 months. All without issues. Plan on replacing the DCS12000 with a DCT15000 (for higher flow) and moving the DCS12000 over and utilizing it in place of the DC6000. They re inexpensive and are very cost effective. Highly recommended!!!!!

I have one and love it! Pretty quiet too.

Wow! That seems like overkill. I'm running a Waveline DC6000 on my 90 DT that replaced a MAG 9.5. That 6000 is rated at 1585 gph. The 9000 is rated at 2378 gph. Granted, they are adjustable, but I'd consider a much small pump to replace that MAG 5.

I run a DCT4000 for my return and DC3000 for my sump manifold and both have been great pumps. Really like the ability to control water flow. I've had the DC300 for over a year with 0 problems, just clean every other month and it hums along, very quiet.

Thanks for the help guys! Well I was. Doing the plumbing and for some reason have all 1/2 return so I have a crapload of headloss. The dcs9000 seems to be pushing the right amount of water so far. I just put an mp10 on as well and there is all kinds of detritus flying around now.
