"Awesome pump."

What everyone says about the silicone tubing being kinked up is true. I got two of these pumps for a DIY tabletop fountains. And their customer service is great. It's very quick, and does an excellent job. Saves having to carry buckets of water around. The water is crystal clear and the bottom completely clean by morning! Based upon comments the motor is prolly not consistently manufactured.

"Works great."

This is the perfect little pump for my application. This one works perfectly and customer service is superb. Note that the barb adapter sizes are different depending on the pump model. This brought the relative humidity up to about 64%. Pump works fine, but I definitely over bought. This first one was a little taller and worked perfectly. No problem at all lifting water as shown in photo.

"Is quiet and functional."

I ordered this pump to keep the filtered water for my plants aerated. Quiet and flows well for a pump that is only a couple inches in size. It's so quiet I don't even hear anything besides the overflow now! Mine can pump 30 gallons in about a minute and a half. Absolutely silent, and has 4 little silicone suction cup feet to isolate vibration. You can't see the pump but it is powering this pot fountain in my pond! Could work for a cat fountain, or small to medium aquarium fountain.

"I loved how sheer it was."

Can min the flow for cat fountain or med. In-line, out-of-tank, saltwater use. Mine can pump 30 gallons in about a minute and a half. This pump will mix 30-50 gallons of salt water in about 20-30 minutes. I did need to run it flat out on volume for my fountain at that height. Best emergency replacent I've bought for my 75gallon reef tank! I ordered this pump to keep the filtered water for my plants aerated.

"Perfect threads."

Came with a couple basic attachments. I am very pleased after a week of it running constantly. This pump will mix 30-50 gallons of salt water in about 20-30 minutes. I am using one of these pumps on a corner matten sponge filter for a little nano 5. I have all that running at 17-watts. This first one was a little taller and worked perfectly. I use it for water changes in my aquarium.

"Great pump for the money!"

It raised the temperature of my water by about 10°. The physical size is great, and the pump itself is very quiet. This first one was a little taller and worked perfectly. Use a T at the suction top with a threaded plug to prime at startup. I'd compare it to the new Hydors with the controllers. It raised the temperature of my water by about 10°.

"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.
