Sep 5, 2008 #3 Bifferwine I am a girl That's what they say about Rios, but I used a Rio HyperFlo for a long time, and was happy with it. Eheims and MagDrives are what I use now, and I'm also happy with those. Both are good brands with good reputations.

Sep 7, 2008 #6 messiah023 Reefing newb Sen, Check THIS out. This guy uses a nice Vortech model 20 wavemaker. I am in love with this pump. I have seen one in action and I am very impressed. For your (and mine) tank size, the model 20 seems to fit well. Pros: VARIABLE 500 - 2000 gph. Comes with wavemaker Magnet drive, no cords in tank. Cons: PRICE!!! $300.00. But, this is on par for what other wavemakers (ie Tunze & Koralia) cost.
