JcSH2o Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 @TJ_Burton I've heard that you have some personal experience with this new pump? I'm setting up my first reef, a Mr Aqua 12 and I'm curious if you would recommend this pump? It's hard to find any useful review other than "it does this and this"... since its so new. I was considering the Mp10 and dropped that idea, I was considering the Tunze 6040... and then discovered this a few days ago. Hahaha ? I'd appreciate any thoughts... 1 Quote Link to comment

For the price point, you won't find a more feature-rich pump. Customizing your own flow schedule is much faster and less buggy than Ecosmart Live, and the tiny footprint puts it high on my list given that it still kicks out 1050 gph. Build quality is pretty good - the DMSS is great for mounting the pump, and is sturdy. I will say the face of the impeller cover is thin and can be cracked if you push directly on it with any amount of force. That being said, I was being rough with it when I cracked mine, although a dab of super glue solved that issue. I currently have 2 of them running similar schedules on a 50 gallon and they are doing a fantastic job. I can imagine on a 12 gallon, a single KPS would be enough to get things moving to your corals' liking. I don't think you'll be disappointed with a KPS. 2 Quote Link to comment

Exactly what I was looking for. I always research heavily (sometimes takes me weeks to buy something which drives the girlfriend crazy) but since this is so new.... For $120 it sure does sound sweet. I'm definitely probably going to get it.... I think. ? 2 Quote Link to comment
