Aquatec 8800 has been serving me very well.

I think aquatec 8800 is pretty much the standard.

Sent from my DROID2 GLOBAL using Reefs

i had the same unit you do and was going to get this one... but i just bought a new RODI unit last week and its a low pressure unit so i dont need it anymore...

They're sold separately I believe, but I bought mine as a bundle. Wouldn't hurt to add a sediment filter in front of the pump as well, it's about $10 or less.

whats the difference between the 8800 and the 6800?

 

[Widdy]

More power for small price increase.

6600 is for 50 gpd and below. 8800 is for 75 to 120. With a little tweak, you can get it to work on a 150 gpd system.

Yes - I would stick to the Aquatec brand. Best thing going.

If you but a off-brand, make sure you can adjust the pressure, and get a warranty.

sorry to hi jack the thread, but what would you recommend for a 300gpd unit

 

[Buckeye Field Supply]

I'd have to know a little bit more about the details of how you want to use it, etc. Just installed a 300 gpd RODI at a public aquarium a couple months ago.
