Does anyone have any experiences with the Jebo WP-40 powerhead?

My local club (at least 1 member and me) looked into these and he is currently running it on his 180. I'll try and send him this thread.

I ordered mine almost two weeks ago. It should be arriving any day! The only negative / downside Ive seen is the fact you cant control the flow rate, it is either wide open, or half speed. But... there may be a way to manually control the speed, its still be looked into for now.

I'll be running mine on my 150g (48x24x31), a lot of people have stated its very strong and not suited for smaller tanks, I hope its not too much for my tank.

I just got mine tonight, hooked one up and wow... It destroys my 4 jbj 1600s.. Just the one makes a wave in my 180

Reviews I'm reading on these are great not to mention a lot less $$ then the Vortechs

That's great! Sounds like I'll have to wait for the WP25 for my 60. Can you post a size comparison with the JBJ1600? I think those may be the pumps I get for my build.

I think I saw that. My issue is that I have a 36gal tank and MAYBE adding a 55gal as well. From what I have seen on here and on other forums these are WAY WAY WAY too much flow for them

Been reading about these in every forum..... Seems like many are jumping on board. How is the heat transfer?

 

[tst400]

Understand...however if I can dial down a little bit on the WP-25 vs dial down a LOT on the WP-40 i would rather the little tone down vs the large one
