Powerheads for flow that won't break the bank

[Rmckoy]

Also
Have a newer sow -20 to add a little extra flow .
on top of the dc-15000 return pump. I don’t think I’m starved for flow

Tunze guy here who uses Jeabao ow-series pumps.
I currently run 6 on 4 different tanks. The controller has more options than my several Tunze.
Lost 1 controller in 5 years.
I have many new backup ones for future use.
2 ow-40's for $140 or 2 Tunze 6105's for $600.
I do have 15+ year old 6105's that are still strong running pumps.
Quick pick of my mess, lol.
Tunze controller is for 9410dc skimmer.

Anything and everything that moves water in my tank is Jebao. Quiet, cheap, does 99% of what the same stuff 3x as expensive will.

running two SCP90 on either side of my 125, 70% because full power is too much. Then I have a surge jebao, got it used free, that kicks on during ATO power , and the ATO pump very small so it runs 2-3 minutes probably 2x a day, and nothing settles.

return is jebao, had it hooked up returning two lines probably 10 ft head, at 70% it pushes at least 1500gph thru the system.

newer models have wifi capability, have never figured it out. However if you have a power strip with on/off, the wifi function really isn’t necessary

nice! I love the jebao return pumps have a few. ran the older jebao wave makers a few years ago got about 15+ month on a pair then they daid with in a month of each other. could not figure out what the deal was. was hoping i could replace a part and keep going.

anyway I think I will get the jebao scp 70M for a RS 300XL seahorse tank I am setting up .

I really want to try tunze pumps so close yet so far away for me.
