Have used product for years, does a great job of moving water in my 135 and 95 gallon tanks. BRS pricing is great and selection of products offered is great.

Not enough power/flow for a betta fish cup By Jeff on 5/3/13
Jeff wouldn't recommend this product to a friend
I purchased two of these so I can use the wave maker setting on my new reef keeper lite as it was a recommendation from BRS and I couldn't be more unhappy with them. They click to loud for my liking so I can only imagine the fish inside and they just don't have any flow to them. Sure if you stick your hand on the cage in front of them you can feel it but a few inches away they have nothing that you feel. I have them in a 29 gallon tank so I am sure that the recommendation came from simple mathematics but I am using them and one is sitting in a box as I grabbed an old one I had until I can buy new ones.
Please don't see this as a stab at BRS. They are the greatest people, great products and timely delivery. I have since purchased from them and continue to do so. Hydor has over rated their product

Hydor 1500 evo. pump By Doel on 4/25/13
Doel would recommend this product to a friend
Everytime mine turns on it makes a bad grinding noise. It's done it since the first time it came on, I thought that was the point of the evolution line. I do have a 750 thats quit though.

Great pumps for the Money By Brandon on 4/9/13
Brandon would recommend this product to a friend
You can't beat these pumps for the money. I would like to have to Eco Techs but I just can't part with the cash yet. One day I will then use these in another tank or in my RO/DI reservoir. Work great for now the fish love the current they create and they are whisper quite

Great Pump! By Chris on 3/26/13
Chris would recommend this product to a friend
Far superior to the maxi-jets I had in their before. Bought the 740 evo's for my 55g. Near silent, magnet mounts are incredibly better than suction cups and the indirect flow is nice. This will be the only pump I use from now on

Top Product out there for the price By Andy on 2/25/13
Andy would recommend this product to a friend
I had really junky powerheads from my LFS. Then I bought these, the 1400 model, along with the HYDOR wave Controller. They are great. I like them so much I am buying the Nano versions for my nano tank. The only reason I give them a 4 instead of a 5 is because they don't have the mechanism living outside of the tank so you still have that ugly powercord going into your tank. Other than that, They are perfect.

Great power head for the price! By Jeremy on 2/15/13
Jeremy would recommend this product to a friend
I use 2 of the 1050's in my 75g mixed tank. They look good on the sides of the tank and are able to to be angled in any direction. They function well and make no noise! (I do not run these on a wave maker though). The flow is strong and blows the brine shrimp I feed all over the tank and keep them suspended for several minutes. I love the really strong magnets and never had one move or fall off, and it is because of these.

Hydor let me down By Kirk on 1/31/13
Kirk wouldn't recommend this product to a friend
I bout 4 550's to run on a wavemaker on my 40G breeder, To start with the start up click is lowed on all pumps and every time. The second thing is the flow, at 10" away the flow starts to die off quick at 15" away there is 0 flow.
I could not find much on the 550 and as I have a Hydor Koralia 2 600GPH from when they came out and still going strong I thought I would be safe...

Reliable, most of the time By David on 1/10/13
David would recommend this product to a friend
I've had Koralias for about four or five years now. They're great quality, but I've noticed that they sometimes start with reverse flow when I use a timer or wavemaker. I've heard that this flaw has been corrected recently, but I haven't followed up. I purchased a pump that does this on occasion approximately 9 months ago.
Other than that, broad flow and relatively compact. Good pump!

Whisper Quiet, love it By Randal on 12/16/12
Randal would recommend this product to a friend
The pump is not even noticeable and along with that it provides good flow to my 40 gallon breeder along with a large directional radius so I can aim it wherever i need flow. My only complaint is I wish the cable was longer.

Not what I was expecting By Michael on 11/30/12
Michael would recommend this product to a friend
This pump is very well made and the magnets are nice. Very quite. It does not have a narrow stream of fast moving water like most power heads. Instead it has a wide area of slow moving water which might be good for certain applications. I was expecting a traditional flow pattern.

I have 2 of these (425 model) in my 29g tank and they work wonders, plus i have a 1400 model in my 90g tank. definitely well worth the money you pay and thats not even a lot! :)

Good product By Sam on 11/22/12
Sam would recommend this product to a friend
I use one 750 in a 90g tank and can point it almost right at corals with out hurting the coral at all, while still preventing detritus from building up. The draw backs are the thin slots can get clogged, wont always flow in the right direction when turing them on, and start to break down after a while (about 2 years of running). For the price though i like them a lot and are great for starting tanks.

Worked good for a while. By Mike on 10/22/12
Mike wouldn't recommend this product to a friend
I bought 2 of these (750 Model) a while back to try as a wavemaker setup. They worked ok for a while but then started to run in reverse at different intervals and then to the point where they would always run in reverse. With them running in reverse it has caused the round part in the screen, in front, to break away on the both of them. If I turn them off, 9 times out of ten they start in reverse. So now I just try to leave them on all the time, when I use them. I am going to replace them with another brand.

Buy it. Seriously. By fissy guy on 10/17/12
fissy guy would recommend this product to a friend
I bought this pump (the 750 model) in March of this year. I was worried due to the cheap price that I would get cheap quality out of it. ...let me tell you, you can take it apart fully (which I have done several times for cleaning and inspecting, as I do with everything else in the tank), and it is still performing now almost 8 months later with just the same power it did on day one, and hasn't given out on me once. If it ever died, I would buy another in a heart beat.
Bottom line--- IT LASTS, and IT WORKS VERY WELL.
