Practically worthless By Randy on 11/5/2018
Randy wouldn't recommend this product to a friend*Que moonlight sonata* I rarely review a product online. Maybe 10 times in 15 years, usually when something is really really good, or really really bad. This product is a perfect example of the latter. I used this pump as a reactor pump, no flow restricted. I purchased it on September 25th, began using it by October 5th, and it sputtered it's last breath on October 29th. It made sure to spit 3 of it's it's tiny, flimsy little impellers into my reactor plumbing, making for a fun time under the hood of my aquarium :) One upside: since half of it's impellers broke off (3 out of 6) in less than a month, it enabled this little pump to live up to it's "Quiet" namesake. -
Not "quiet" at all. By Sean on 5/18/2018
Sean wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI just got one and it is not very quiet at all. My 11 year old ViaAqua is quieter. This pump has both a hum and a light grinding sound. Unfortunately you get what you pay for. It is cheap for a reason. If noise is an issue for you, pay more and get a real quiet pump. Don't be fooled by the name "Quiet one". I've heard EHEIM pumps are good and quiet, I am going to try one of those. -
pro 1200 By mark 20 nano on 9/6/2017
mark 20 nano would recommend this product to a friendnot totally silent but very quite low humm. Powerful up to 42 inches with 2 - 90 degree elbows. does cut off at 50 inches of height. Good for short run or to run like my nano 20 high with 10 gallon sump under tank -
Works well for mixing water By Jaco on 12/14/2016
Jaco would recommend this product to a friendI am using one of these in a 5 gallon bucket and half filled 32G brutes to mix salt. It has more than enough power in the 5 gallon and adequate power in the 32G. It is pretty quiet for the money, but not silent -

Awesome little pump By MTWiley on 11/24/2015
MTWiley would recommend this product to a friendThe 1200 works well and it seems to be the cheapest pump I could find that could be run externally. It's been working well for my mixing station for the last few weeks. -
long term great pump By ajm on 9/17/2015
ajm would recommend this product to a friendBelieve it or not I've used this pump as a return on a 40b system for about 5 years now. I got a good deal on it and though it was supposed to only be temporary I liked it enough to keep it as my return pump (have circulation pumps and such in the display obviously). Overall a great pump. It's been very reliable and it's still very quiet. -
Good By O.S on 8/31/2015
O.S would recommend this product to a friendit doesn't pump to much water but is not the pump fault, i should bought a stronger one -
It's a good little pump By James on 8/24/2015
James would recommend this product to a friendThis pump is a good little pump. I don't think I would expect it to power a dual reactor as well it it should be, single yes. I just use it to get water into the tank from a 5gal water change bucket. It works amazingly for that! It's extremely quiet too (submerged in water, you'd never know it's on). -
Works By pvpd106 on 8/19/2015
pvpd106 would recommend this product to a friendThe pump works just fine. It does not move enough water to work well with the dual reactor. The water coming out of the reactor is just barely a trickle. This is not the pumps fault, I should have bought a stronger one. -
not as adveratised By cma on 7/28/2015
cma would recommend this product to a friendI bought this pump one, because it said the outlet was a 1" MPT(male pipe thread) two, because it was cheaper than other brands. However I had already purchased the rest of the return line plumbing to work with a 1" pump outlet. When I received the package the pump wasn't a 1" MPT it was a 3/4" MPT so now I have to go and get all my return plumbing to work with the 3/4" outlet. I also contacted BRS before I purchased this pump and asked them about the outlet because the picture they where advertising showed it as a slip outlet not a MPT, while there quick overview said it was a 1'' MPT . I got a response saying they where going to change the picture to correctly match the quick overview specifications. I haven't used the pump yet so it would be unfair to judge the product.

Would this be a decent pump to use to move water from the floor into the display if i'm tired of lifting buckets? Or would you recommend something else I could just use from further away so I don't have to haul any buckets, I'm on a budget.
Question posted on Dec 10, 2018 11:38:00 AM
Hey there! This will get the job done for you if your tank height is less than about 6ft tall as it only pushes up to 7ft. The flow rate won't be very strong and will take a little time, but you could definitely empty buckets into the display with it. For that price, it's likely your best option from us. :)
