What pump?

[DeathWish302]

Starting a new nano, and wondered the general consensus of what pump is used. I'm leaning towards a micro or mini jet by aquarium systems. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

The mini-jet and micro-jet are both good pumps however the microjet is definitely much smaller and I believe their flow rates are comparable. I would opt for the micro-jet because of its small size. Also, the micro-jet is the only one of the bunch (at least of the ones that I own) that has a grounded power chord, a pretty nice feature.

I use a maxi jet 600(i believe) which is attached to a spraybar that sits in the corner of my nano. It really puts out a nice amount of current. HTH

I think the Micro and Mini jets are good choices, but i want to toss in another manufacturer to this mix. How about RIO's. I know that rio's have a bad rep amongst reefers, but i think that the problems are with the bigger models. I am currrently using a small rio and have had no problems with it and they are pretty small too.
the model 90's all the way to the 800's have been okay
