I have the Rio 1400 on mine, going on 2 1/2 yrs, no problem. But, will say that if it goes out, I will get the mag. Can never have too much power on the pump with a skimmer.

I ran a Remora Pro with a Mag 3 for almost two years until I recently upgraded to an EV-240 with a Mag 12. I was pretty happy with the Mag 3. I've had some problems with Rio pumps in the past, so I think I'd definitely go with the Mag.

Well..So far 1/2 like mags, 1/2 like Rio. I have never found a mag of any size that I did not like and I have used several Rios. Some are still working, but most have not survived over a year. Go with the Mag.

Actually, I think it would be more accurate to say 1/2 like mags because Rio's have died on them, and the other half apparently haven't tried a mag. So yes, go with the mag.
