DAP Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I just received this pump via Fish-Street last week. I used the power head for 8 hours. I was hoping to replace my RW-4 but the flow seems to be more narrow than the RW-4, which I don't like for my tank. Very small power head with a lot of power which is nice. This model is also apparently APEX compatible... never looked into the details as I don't own an APEX. This would be perfect for an IM-10. PM me if interested. Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 How is the size compared to a rw4 ? Any chance you could post a sode by side ? Link to comment

Let me see what I can do for pics. how much water per hour can it push? looking for something that will push aprox 1500 gallons a hour to replace one of those huge sunsun's Per the mfgr it's max output is 2500 liters. You need like an rw4 or rw8. Link to comment

Reefkid88 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Okay. I was thinking about one for my pico,and a rw4 is just a little to big. Link to comment
Icedgxe Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I would love to see a picture of this. I didnt even know about this one. Link to comment
DAP Posted September 28, 2016 Author Share Posted September 28, 2016 The SW-2 is on the right. RW-4P on the left. It measures 2" exactly at the widest part of the bracket. From the inside of your tank, the pump would protrude into the tank 2 3/4". I do like that the SW-2 has a longer cord than the RW-4. Link to comment
Clown79 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 How is this pump working? I'm thinking of getting it for my 15g. Debating on which model would be better. Link to comment
asting Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Buy it from this guy.The next size up will be too much, especially if you have a HOB or other flow. Link to comment
DAP Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 I had an RW4 in a standard size 15. (24" long) I could only run the RW4 on pulse, at a power of 2, my softies and lps didnt like any higher. I have an RW4 on my 20 long now, and I still run on pulse, but I am up to a power of 4. basically due to the longer length of the 20 long. Link to comment
Nanoreefwanabe Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Do you have pics of the controller? Does it have the 0-10v apex port on it? Or is it the regular controller? Also is this pump functioning normal and working well. ....I see lots of reviews where people are having problems with then. . Hopefully this is something jebao has sorted out... I would love to know a speed price to Canada too.. Link to comment
