Hi All

I'm looking to change my 90 lpm hailea air pump. One I was looking at was the Evolution Aquatech Air Pump range? Has anyone used these or still using these? Also has anyone used the hailea air pumps and do you think they are as powerful as stated because a few people tell me there not??

Regards

Ricky

i currently use 2 hailea pumps, 70ltrs/min and i cant fault them really, a little noisy maybe but they have been running for 18 months and never missed a beat.
I am however looking at the evolution aqua pumps, thinking of having just one pump instead of 2, I've only heard good things about the pumps, i'm thinking of getting the 130ltr/min one

Yeah I've had my hailea about the same ands has been good. But when I've had people round they say it's a little noisy compared to others. They also said that they ain't as powerful as they should be?? My hailea is a 90 lpm and I was thinking of the 95 or 130 myself. How many lines you think they would run off them for sponge filters and air stones??

Regards

not sure how many you could run from each pump, there must be a rough guideline somewhere of how much air to run a 2 foot tank for example, but i cant find it lol.
