Equivalent to Eheim 1250, but cheaper?

Ion · 01-02-2003, 06:32 PM

I'm gonna buy a pump, thought about the 1250, but it's too expensive. The new pump from Swiftech haven't started selling in Sweden yet, but I could probably get any other pump from a pet-store.
So, what do you say? What pump should I go for?

in series

Look for a Danner 350-500. The Pondmaster 350s are outstanding for WC use, plus you can buy them for under $50 USD.

This one Hydor Seltz L30 half the price of Eheim here in Slovenia, and almost the same specs.

The Hydor is about 70$ here, so it's rather expensive. Do you know anything about Aquarium System Maxijet PH 1200 L? It's only 45$.
The Danner Pondmaster isn't sold at all =) How I love to live in a small country...

Maxy-jet are good pump, I use two 1000 l/h in series. The only thing I miss on maxy jets are better hose conectors, removable fitting would be even better. But performanse wise this pump is good.
