    Its an awesome pump. My rbta started bubbling up the day I installed it. The short pulse waves freak out my girl so I usually leave it on lagoon mode. I want 3 more. Well maybe 1 more mp10 and two mp20s.

    i have the MP20 on reef crest mode on my 55gal show and it's amazing! i want another one so i can retire the Koralia evo for good. (not that it's not a good pump, the MP20 is just better).

    Brand new they are excellent. I have had trouble with the wet side eventually, after a little over a year, rubbing internally. The friction source has yet to be determined, but unless the engineering has been worked on, they don't hold up over time. I have seen several reviews on the internet ( see Marine Depot. com ) by people having the same problem. A new wet side is expensive. I am going to bite the bullet and get Tunze based on their reputation.

    I got 2 of these, the size is incredible. The thing that made me get them is the warranty. It seem that they have problems, but they are pretty good with providing a fix.

    There is only 1 review out of 34 on that site that is negative for this product and I can't find any other negative reviews on other sites. Could you link us up?

    I love my MP40. I keep it on reef crest mode. The crazy water movement is just too much for me. I like a peaceful tank lol.

    I plan on getting another MP40 for the other side so they can work together.
