I have had the tank set up 14 months.
I have now lost yet another return pump which makes two and will probably be losing two more shortly.
A Rio brand that quit working after just 4 months.
A surge brand that started leaking voltage at about a year old.
A quiteone brand while still operating does not come on after a power interruption unless it is remove from the sump and disassembled, reassembled and if I am lucking comes back on after just one of these processes. I suspect its days are numbered. Pump is but a few months old
And now a capcom brand with a rattling impeller. I suspect its days are also numbered.
Now considering other equipment issues with heaters, LFS demanding top dollar for inferior livestock and lack of availability I really see myself returning to freshwater vary soon. I simply can not afford to keep replacing inferior equipment. Let alone just assume that if I buy livestock from one of the local LFS it will most likely immediately have to go into a treatment in order to save its life.
