Long term success with jabeo pumps

[GrizFyrFyter]

Why does everyone feel the need to state their opinion when it's not relevant to the thread? We all know that they are cheaper than others. This is about hands on experience.

OP asked about long term use. My 25 was the first US shipment with the new controller and has been running full time without a hitch.

6 months with my 25 and rocks!!!!!:clap2:

6 months, no washes, lots of flow! Not as quiet as my koralias or vortechs, but wow do these move a lot of water for the money!

 

[Funlad3]

That's with a 40 and 25, BTW... :)

Converting you is not my problem. Your "big surprise" trash talk is rude, uncalled for and undeserved. There are plenty of threads for an open discussion of product comparison, this isn't one of them.

However you seem to perceive my comment is your choice.... And being that this post was made on a local club forum where people know each other, they can understand where I'm coming from. My comment was not rude in any way at all. It was based on the general knowledge that a chinese company copied a tunze design then called it something very similar to a quality product by ecotech. It is no secret that most chinese products are inferior, and I for one like to support American made quality products when I can. This is my opinion and I am able to post something like that here on my local club's forum. He plainly posted his experience with his pump and I wasnt surprised at all. Therefore a little sarcasm(which I am known to be a champion at) is how I responded.

I am sorry to derail the thread from the original post, but I cant simply ignore accusations when they are undeserved as well.

I just wanted to know about others experience with these pumps. I didn't want a debate on which is better or inferior. I own both tunzes and jabeos I can decide for myself. But thanks for the vinegar tip I will try it with my new cheap Japanese pump ;)

It's all good man. I'm glad you posted about it. Haven't seen you post on here enough. And btw, it's Chinese. Lol

What kind of tank are you running? Or better yet post that in another thread.

I've had a wp40 for about a year still going strong. I have tunze as well, I'd trade the tunze for another jebao.

Also vortechs are made made in China, maybe designed in US and maybe some assembly in the US , but manufactured in China.

 

[reefsandrotts]

I
have a first edition wp25 and Its still going strong

 

[joshsamsj]

I just got a wp60. This thing is a beast

I just ordered one, it's being shipped from china though so it'll probably take a couple weeks. My buddy was impressed with my wp40 so I also just ordered him two wp25's, I think I may order myself a 25, or just order another 60 and move my 40 to my smaller tank even though it may be too much.

Where's the best place to get these from? I need a dc6000 for a return. Is fish street the only place? I saw them on amazon but they were expensive.

 

[saratj1]

I've bought all mine off eBay. Didn't check fish.

 

[joshsamsj]

When I ordered mine it said it was coming from Hong Kong but it shipped from New Jersey got it in 3 days

Fish-street and they will warranty the pumps

I run two wp40's on my 6'x2'x23" tank and have since they first came out and I love them. I just recently sold the two tunzes I replaced. I could care less about some childish, jelouse post about those overpriced mp40's. Anyone can do a search and find tons of complaints on those pumps. Even damaging tanks. In my opinion people are upset because they spent a bunch of money in a pump to brag and look cool then the wp40's came out and they feel cheated. Well guess what- they probably were. Just accept it and stop bashing the wp40's and the people who buy them. At this point its starting to look foolish. Thus is for all the wp40 haters. Not one in perticuler. BTW I own an a/c business in south Louisiana so this isn'ta budget thing . In my mind its a great piece of equipment for a realistic price. Sorry rant is over but I'm tired of every time someone says something good about these pumps there's always a hater that just has to butt in.
