"We're all happy."

Mine is powerful others not so powerful, i guess. I'd compare it to the new Hydors with the controllers. Ordered this one and received it in one day. My current standard 100gph pump wasn't cutting it. Absolutely silent, and has 4 little silicone suction cup feet to isolate vibration. It's powerful but quiet which I love. This brought the relative humidity up to about 64%.

"It's firm!"

Great flow that is easily adjustable. The only reason I couldn't give the pump 5 stars is that it does generate some heat. That was barely within the pump's capability. I cut one end off old garden hose and it fit perfectly on end of pump. Put it back in the aquarium and has been quiet ever since. By the time were ready to pump the water back in, salt is completely mixed. Best emergency replacent I've bought for my 75gallon reef tank!

"Mission accomplished!"

Absolutely silent, and has 4 little silicone suction cup feet to isolate vibration. Love the ability to control the flow. Ended up removing pump from aquarium after 3 days of relentless noise. I did need to run it flat out on volume for my fountain at that height. Overall I was surprised how light it is, maybe 2-3 lbs. Quiet and flows well for a pump that is only a couple inches in size. We start mixing when we begin the water change.

"Or super glue."

Put it back in the aquarium and has been quiet ever since. I really like this pump, although I would have liked a little more flow. I recommend this small, very economical pump! At least 50% less than big box store's price. This one works perfectly and customer service is superb. The amazon Review template asked me about this products'sheerness. The only reason I couldn't give the pump 5 stars is that it does generate some heat.

"It's very quiet too."

I upgraded to a stronger one and it got broken at the bottom while being shipped. I changed to a 65GPH pump with good results. Using right now for my indoor pond for my koi until the one outside is finished. Wife had bought a small fountain at Goodwill and the pump was bad. Eventually, I had the hose squirting water on the inside of the right pane of glass. So far, I think I got a LOT of bang for my buck with this little pump. I really like this pump, although I would have liked a little more flow.
