400 GPH Submersible Water Pumps for Aquarium, Tabletop Fountains, Pond, Water Gardens and Hydroponic Systems with Two Nozzles, CE-ROHS Approved, 5.9 ft Power Cord

This is a powerful little pump. The problem isn't with the pump--but my lack of knowledge as to how forceful a high number GPH can be. I thought I'd be smart and order a pump with a high GPH for my decorative garden water fountain. It is almost too powerful. I have turned back the intake valve, but it still "over shoots" the bowl. This isn't a huge problem, except it spills enough water to require that I refill the reservoir more frequently then with the original pump that burned out after a year of service. I was thrilled to keep my fountain going by just replacing the little pump and the price was WONDERFUL (a local store had one for more than double the price and not as powerful). This little guy is "almost too good" and that's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5

I put this in the bottom of a chest freezer I use for a minnow tank, to recirculate water through a 5 gallon bucket full of filter media. It works good. Just be aware of the pump curves, you aren't going to hang the bucket from the ceiling and have the water pumped up to it from floor level, this pump doesn't have the power for that. the bottom of my bucket is even with the top of the freezer and it works good for that purpose, and ran all last summer.

My pump on the mc37v cooler went out and I did not want again to spend the high price for the 'hessaire' pump seen at sylvane. Read that people DO use normal aquarium pumps as replacements. Difference is that THIS pump is not plugged into the hessaire power harness but outside in a normal outlet. I guided the cord through the refill opening and into an elevated power strip. There are no screws to fasten the pump inside the base but luckily it can be squeezed between the existing screw molds. So far so good. It's running and wetting the pads just fine. Btw. don't forget to clean the spider tubes every now and then. They get gunky.

We are using this to pump out about a 20-gallon in-ground fountain/pond for cleaning; so we are only needing about a 2-foot rise, but then have hosing connected to get the water away from the pond. It has made emptying dirty water SO much easier than using the wet-vac. This pump is small enough to be easy to store, small enough to easily fit into the pump well of the fountain, and cheap enough that if the dirty water eventually causes problems, we can inexpensively replace this, and be happy we didn't ruin our big pump.

I replaced our old worn out pump with this one and couldn't be happier. It runs water to the top of our decorative fountain like a champ It's approximately four feet high and the water pressure up to the top is quite impressive, especially considering the low price point. Also it is virtually silent. With the ambient noise outside and the soothing sound of the water you can not hear the pump working at all.

I am using this pump in a series of 2 rain barrels to irrigate plants that I winter over in my garage. The pump is barely able to lift the water to the stated height with enough pressure to make it to the plants, but it does work. I do have some concerns about the durability of the product, but that remains to be seen. So far, though, worth the price.

So far so good. I waited to write a review till it at least ran for a few weeks. I have this in my sump returning water about 3' up to my 46g DT. Strong flow I had to turn it down a bit. Pump runs quiet and no issues as of yet. My only concern is the life span of these pump but for that only time will tell. I'm used to using Danner Mag Drives but I took a chance on this. For the price it's well worth it as of now.

I purchased this pump to replace a malfunctioning pump for my 3 foot high water fountain and it works admirably. This pump provides a very steady strong flow of water to my fountain, and the effect is quite dramatic, even when I set it to half strength.
