question.
how hard is it to swap out the pump in the 14 biocube?
is it like pull it out, plug new one in, drop it back down?
or are there major mods that need to be done to it?

The only thing you may have to do which I did when I added a MaxiJet is cut down the tubing the connects the pump to the outtake. Simple kitchen scissors will do the trick.

i think it would be too much flow. i tried that once and with a hydor flo and it was pushing sand all over the place. an MJ900 would be good with a hydor flo.
i think the 1200 puts out more heat because its more watts. you can leave the stock locline in if you want. i think some people change theirs out
