Brian da lion Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 What Rio powerhead would be the best for replacing the nanocube 12g stock pump with? Link to comment
Meercat_Maric Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I have a rio 600 in my 25 - works awesome... The beautiful thing with the rio is you can adjust the amount of flow. Link to comment
dantwenty2 Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 i have a mini jet (MJ606) in mine, it seems to be what everyone is putting in theirs. read on here more and you find a lot more info... Link to comment
Brick Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I agree the MJ 606 works great. Link to comment
aural Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I put the MJ606 in mine but i also split the return, so i think i want a bit more powerful pump. Link to comment

uscgairdale Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Cast another vote for the MJ606. Mine works great and even helped lower my water temp....the stock pump ran hot. Link to comment
slickchick Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 MJ 606 for me too. Great little pump. Link to comment
Brian da lion Posted April 9, 2005 Author Share Posted April 9, 2005 I wanted to know about the rio powerheads, because that is the only brand that my lfs carries. Link to comment
Brian da lion Posted April 9, 2005 Author Share Posted April 9, 2005 Please listen, rio is the only brand available to me. I need to know which rio is best. Link to comment
slickchick Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Can you not order one online? I'll bet the rio at your LFS is 2x what the MJ 606 is online. In fact, the 606 at my LFS is 2-3x what it is online (depending on the LFS). Link to comment
Brian da lion Posted April 9, 2005 Author Share Posted April 9, 2005 There was a rio 200 for $14, but I was not sure if it would physically fit inside the 3rd chamber. Link to comment
stoney waters Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I think what everyone is trying to say, is that Mini Jets are best. They should be easily be found locally. Link to comment
Brian da lion Posted April 9, 2005 Author Share Posted April 9, 2005 Alright, I guess I'll keep looking. Thanks for your input, everyone. Link to comment
