So how are these pumps? Do you last a long time, can they handle the abuse of constant wear? Can you get parts?

I like the simplicity of the first one linked but I am concerned about he second one, do I have to go on my computer of phone to do any adjustments on it?

Do these go on Black Friday sale?

Thanks in advance.

I consider these pumps to be absolutely dark horses that don't get enough credit. I can't speak to the Pulse 2 as I have the 4, but I can tell you it pushes far more flow than my MP40. Tons of flow, quiet, just works. If you have a Apex with 0-10v you can connect and control that way if you need schedules.

OK I have a 120 tank now and a 225 BNIB in the garage, so looks like I will get the 4 thanks.

I just put the Octo 4 in my 120. I was going to get another but I don’t think I need too, but only a few hours use. Just seeing what your experience has been
