4/5 By jd on 4/18/13
jd would recommend this product to a friend
This is basically an over engineered pump. But, it has so many settings that sound practical. Hopefully all the settings that the pump is capable of truely produce the desired effect they say they will. I usually run reef crest or lagoon mode. Have used these on 20 gallon long for some nice wave action and detritus movement. Now I use on a small nano 8 gallon and it completes a "minimalist" look for the tank.
Occassionally reviews say these pumps are loud. My has a slight hum and occassionally picks up a piece of macro algae and stops but that is rare. Overall a good pump is you have the cash.

Good Product By Joseph on 12/28/12

Small footprint in tank with is important for people like myself with a smaller 65 gallon tank. Nutrient Transport mode is great after feeding for corals. Quite and sleak design. Looks good in tank and functions well. easy wavemaker function. Was looking at other brands but the clicking on startup and shutoff of other pumps with wavemaker abilities just was not going to work.

Quality pump that performs By Brian on 12/11/12

I cant say enough about this pump. I currently have one running in my 29g standard (30") reef and its the only pump I need running. It replaced 3 previous powerhead that I was using.
This biggest drawback to vortechs with most people is the price, but they are extremely worth it if you can front the cash. Quality manufacturing, quality support, numerous and excellent modes of operation and a pump that moves water like no other.
Ive had this pump about a year and have never had a problem. I cant say that for other powerheads. Its never let me down and the performance and functionality ensure all my tank critter are happy as can be.
Get a backup power supply and quit worrying about power outages, this pump literally offers it all with integration with other products like Radion lights and Apex controllers to offer even more options.
I can guarantee all my future pump purchases will be vortechs.

Fantastic Powerhead! By Pat on 12/2/12
Pat would recommend this product to a friend
This thing rocks! I replaced 2 internal Hydor Evo's and it is so much less noticable in my tank. It does make a very slight hum but, to me it's jsut white noise and not irritating at all. Being able to control this thing makes it worth every penny.

ECOTECH IS THE APPLE OF THIS INDUSTRY By Kevin on 12/2/12

This is an easy five star rating. I truly believe these pumps are peerless and the only negative is that because I've had such a great experience with this product, it's made me want MORE of their products.

Good performance but lousy(eco tech) cust. service after warranty is up... By doug griffith on 11/25/12
doug griffith wouldn't recommend this product to a friend
My mp 10's dry side went bad after only 16 months. I sent it in only to have to pay $93 (w/shipping) to get it fixed.... So as of today I have spent approx $320 on a pump that may or may not last another 16 months. Oh yeah, they charged my credit card before getting my final permission on the amount once they found out what was wrong with it... real professional:(
I would have expected a pump that costs over $200 to last at least 3 years before any real issues and would have hoped the company would have backed it up since it was only 4 months(at most) past warranty, but I guess I was expecting too much.
