I'm thinking of getting this pump for the dual beckett I just finished building. Anyone have any experience or rumors about this pump?

Its a very good pump. Doesnt run as loud as the Iwaki, Blueline and GRI pumps.

I use to run an Iwaki 100RLT on my system and the MARLIN as replaced it.

I have been running the MARLIN for over a month now. MDM Inc selected me to be a test dummy to get my opinion on the pump. I have been very impressed so far with this pump.

Do you think pressure-wise it's comparable with the 100rlt? Enough to handle a 5' tall dual beckett skimmer?

Its hard for me to say. The only thing I can say is that the pressure feels the same coming out of my (2) 1" Sea Swirls as it did with the Iwaki 100RLT. Also, I had to back off both the Iwaki and Marlin because it was slightly too much water for my overflows to handle. Both were backed off the same.
