I purchased the new MJ1200 from Marineland and wow, what a piece of crap. I was using it for the new TLF reactors I bought, instead I found and old mj1200 I had laying around which is the Italian version and used that one instead.


I didnt realize until after the fact that a company named Cobalt sells the Italian made MJ1200. There is a huge difference between these pumps.


Marineland really dropped the ball on this one, why would you substitute a great pump for a piece of crap made in China.
 
Agreed. I bought the new MJ1200, the one that comes with the flow kit, and its a piece of junk. Takes like 15 seconds for it to stop clicking and actually start spinning correctly.
 
Total crap. Can you still get the mod kits separately, and then just buy the Cobalt 1200 pump?
