The Unusual Mini Polario Prop Pump

Coming out early this year, Taam's Mini Polario prop pump is a big improvement over the more submarine shaped polario that preceeded it. The compact design will certainly find more applications in many tanks. Polario pumps are one of the more unusual prop pumps out there in that they are bi-directional - their controller actually switches their flow on the fly. The compact controller is preset for random flow but is not programmable (yet?). That said, the Mini Polario series can still produce GPH with the 10ML producing 2600 GPH at just 25 watts. An interesting pump, available now.






Description

• Energy efficient, high flow low voltage water pump
• Bi-directional outputs to simulate natural wave and currents of the ocean
• Pre-set random flow and alternating outputs
• Random flow rates from approximately 600 GPH to 2600 GPH (2,300LPH to 10,000LPH)
• depending on the model
• 360° degree directional pump mounting bracket with magnet mount

I like the small size! Much less intrusive compared to other brands. Any word on a price point yet?

Unlike vortech it still puts a tiny bit of voltage in the water though :-/

 

Seen one of these in a test tank running for several months now, and its pretty cool. Glad to see it is coming to market finally.

Price I found online was $141 dollars.

 

Looks like Vortechs might have some real competition now.

 

anyone using these? Whats the review from our members? I'm looking to compliment an MP40w by adding more flow to the tank for the price tag of <$100. I like the koralias but they look so large in the tank. Wanted something smaller this is what I found when searching. Suggestions? Thanks.

 

Has anybody used or seen these in person??

 

This thing is pretty cool.

Older post but I did find a selection of them on Amazon. Seem like a better option than the typical powerhead - excluding vortechs obviously
