hello all
I need a 1800 gph head pressure pump to run a Lifereef Skimmer .

All three pumps are close in price, what which is the best pump?

Thank you for any help.

I use a sicce for my return pump and absolutely love it. No issues and runs dead silent. No experience with the other two unfortunately

I've used the slightly smaller versions of the Sicce and Mag and they are both fantastic. Can't comment on the PS4 since the only one of those I have plays games. :p

I would consider my Sicce a small version as well, Its the Sicce Syncra Silent 3.0......Xbox guy over here ;)

I am not familiar with the PS4, so no comment. With the MAG and Sicce, they are both quality pumps, and with either one, you can't go wrong. I have MAG pumps that are over ten years old! That being said, I'd lean more towards the Sicce because of power consumption. MAGs are energy hogs and also give off a good bit of heat.

I'm guessing some extra heat is not a problem in Olean, NY. :)

I like all the options so far.....I'd even include QuiteOne 6000 among them. Excellent power efficiency and excellent warranty.

Heat is a welcomed friend right now in Olean, NY


I’m leaning toward the Mag 18 due to better head pressure.

I have mag pumps I use them now pumping & mixing water . They are work animals but they are noisy & run hot. I like the Sicces. The Quiet ones in my op are not good quality and sissy's when it comes to pushing water.
