Pump opinions

Laura and Jim will be hosting the May meeting this Saturday the 12th and it will be the usual of food, drinks, raffle and fun.
 
Doors will be open at 6:00 pm for social talk and the meeting will start at 7:00.  Parking gets a little tight and the city says you can't park on 4th but there is a parking lot a block away.   Meeting is usually held in the backyard so feel free to bring your favorite lawn chair, weather permitting of course.

If you need address/directions, contact a club member.

Best if you park at Mini Mall (where the spaghetti establishment use to be)
 
You will get to see his new frag tank set up in the making.
 
Hope to see you there!

If you had the opportunity to get a Dolphin Ampmaster 3000 or a Iwaki MD70RLT.  Both Brand new for $200, which would you choose, and why..

thanks
Mike

The Dolphin, because it is a direct drive not magnetic. You get more flow for the same or lower power use.

Hi Mike Is the Dolphin pump on a american made motor? If you compare price alone the Iwaki list for $ 287 on marine depot...

The Iwaki is louder, uses more electricity. But lasts longer. Iwaki is a work horse, I just hate their sound.

Ok well I think i might try to pick up an ampmaster 3000 then.  The iwaki is brand new for $230.  The Ampmaster is used for $210..

I'm all about quiet, since my fish tank is in my home theater room...  And electricity savings is always a bonus..

Great, it sounds like you made the right choice. Glad we can help out.
