Thank you. Finally got the living room pretty much fully set up after the move. It's nice to relax by the tank.

Got home from work to a dead return pump and a chilly tank. Turns out the power supply for the jebao dc6000 died. Luckily I found a power supply from an old coralvue dc skimmer pump and it matched up perfectly. So far everything looks pretty good besides a few not so happy looking zoas. Hoping they pull through. I think this may be the final "nudge" I needed to get a vectra M1.

I had the same thing happen to my Jebao DC-9000. As long as you match the DC specs for wattage, you can replace with a generic DC power supply. I bought one on Amazon.

This was an excuse to upgrade to the new DCT line of pumps and get a bigger DCT-120000 for me. I still have the DC-9000 as my backup.

Yea I got lucky having the other pump laying around. How are you liking the DCT pump?

It's nice, much quieter. I'm also running it at about 60% (vs. the 9000 running at 90%) so I hope it will remain quiet and reliable. They did raise the prices, so it's about halfway to the pricing on the premium DC pumps. I think the DC-12k was $135, so it's a harder choice than the pricepoint on the DC series prices.

I'll have to look into them too. Still hoping to see a vectra in person before pulling the trigger. Thanks for the info.
