got 3 Jebao put them in 3 years ago. never cleaned them, (well once every 3 years) only replacing one now because I took it out to clean and the back feels and sounds like a snapple top. app is rough but its price point is right and super super easy to program. But I am replacing One jebao to make my self happy. old one will go into the back up box. the wave pumps I have PP -15 sow-10 and a SCP -90m. PP went in 3 years ago when I set up the tank.

You are soooo right ! I love the volume of movement and silence of the Jebao PP 20s, however they both crapped out in about 1 year. The magnets did hold strong through 1inch plywood in my diy plywood aquarium, but they weren't cheap. I plumbed a magdrive 1800 in rear of tank. Its on rock in back corner of tank, with black piping, up and across back.. I have locline with a 3inch blade outlet that gives great surface agitation. The magdrive may use a bit more electric, however they are bulletproof, and always give me many years of service. And it was $50 bucks cheaper, than 2 PP 20s.

You have to use the ow series. All the old models rw pp sw and so on have a different motor. Mine are going on 2 years couldn’t be happier. I was having the same issues with the pp series.

Same situation, WFH, wife a nurse, 4 kids, so I decided to start a tank why not, your 40 gal breeder is close to my set up

It's not bad working it once you get Until I don't mess with it for a while I forget how to work it. 😂

Are you cleaning with Vinegar? I have heard of vinegar causing pumps to break down. I use Citric acid and have not yet had an issue.

[semisuccessfulreefer]

I bought an mp40 that was loud as hell and expensive as hell and it failed after 6 months.... Now I'm running jebao Gyres and have been for almost 2 years with zero issues....will never buy expensive crap again. Will be less upset if my cheap pump fails.

[fredd]

I agree ! They just stop working for no reason

[waynenergy]

Its funny i am using a jebao and has been running for more than 6 years. Till date I have not even clean a single time. Now has so many weird things growing around the wavemaker. I am too lazy to clean it. Also waiting for it to spoil to change to a new model

[kingfishers]

Great vid again Mr Mass...cheers to staying healthy from the UK 👍

I've had the same experience with the Jeboa pumps failing. Hopefully this pump will serve you a bit longer.

I've been using the same SICCE Voyager 3 Pump since 2013.

[gibby]

interesting. I have had the same jabao for more than 3 years. It has even gotten to the point of neglection where it stopped running due to how clogged it was with GHA GROWING on it and has come back the same. I don't have mine running at 100%, I wonder how much of a factor that was for you. Either way, sorry to hear about your troubles.

I've had my pp4 for about 4 years now and it's still going strong.

[legionaquatics]

If I was to use one for a freshwater tank would it kill shrimp?

[FirehouseGeckos]

I haven't had a jebao pump last longer than a year and that includes the other brands that use their pumps such as skimz.

[avatargunner]

I have a 36 gallon bowfront saltwater tank fish and a few soft corals which would be good for this tank a rw4, sw4, ow 10 or 25? Thanks

[jonathangraham]

Hi! I have a 45 gallon breeder tank. I'm looking to start a reef tank, which model would you recommend? would you recommend two pumps?

[XXZombieXHunter]

The investment into eco tech products are worth it. Seems like a steep price to start but how much did it cost for the 5 jabao pumps and the hagger?

[jaycamp]

What kinda LED LIGHT OR T5 do you have on this beautiful tank
