Reliable / Noisy By Ryan on 3/9/13
Ryan wouldn't recommend this product to a friend
Okay pump, I have it for my 55 Gallon tank with 10 Gallon sump, It is a bit noisy, I have used silicone to attach it to the tank, and also placed blue filter foam around it and cannot get it to quiet down. also produces a good amount of heat, it keeps my tank at about 6 degrees hotter than the air in my house. 76 currently. Other than that, it pushes water great and seems reliable I have not given it the test of time. the box says it is warrantied for 5 years.

I've had a Mag 7 going strong for the past 7 years. I haven't replaced the impeller or even cleaned it. These things are tanks!

Loud By DKujo on 6/12/12

Contrary to the other reviews, I was very unhappy with this pump. There is a terribly loud humming noise, almost as if there is a rock in the unit, bouncing around. Please do your interenet research before buying this product. These pumps are boasted for being reliable, but do your research and you will see that I am not the only one with noise problems with this pump. Guess I have a new pump to mix water now.

3 years and still going By Manny on 6/6/12

These pumps just don't wear out. I had a problem with flow in my old tank and thought I needed a new pump. When I took it apart after 3 years of no maintenance, the inside was still looking great and working like new. The problem wasn't in this pump, it was someplace else.
They are like the old Timex commercials...takes a lick and keeps on ticking!

These Pumps are the Best By David on 3/18/12

Other than Ehiem (which are bigger $), I dont know of another pump I would rely on more than these. The 5 is the perfect size to drive bio-pellets in the TLF 150 reactor. Forget about the Maxi Jet 1200. Its not even close. These are great pumps.

I use this as my return pump for a 20 gallon tank, it is connected to 1/2 inch pvc pipe and a ball valve that regulates the flow. Don't worry about the pump it can take the pressure, it's been running for quite a while now.
