Aquafuge HOB Refugium Pump

[goldenhurricane2]

I have a medium Aquafuge HOB refugium and it works great! Unfortunately the pump just went out... I can't seem to find what type or size it is. Does anyone know? I'd like to get that ordered asap before all my macro starts dying.

On the sale listings it shows a aquavia 480, but I'm not sure that's the correct size or not for the medium refugium. I don't want to overdo it and get a massive replacement but I also don't want to get a wimpy replacement that won't push water through.

That's tough without the specs and if that's gph or LPH

Look for the jebao 1200 D.C. Pump. About the size of a maxi jet.

I figured it out - thanks for the advice though!

Can you please share your solution?

I have seen them listed with Rio pumps and ViaAqua pumps, but the GPH is not included with any retail listings I have seen in my research or at the CPR Aquatics website. If anyone has one it would be great to put some closure to this thread for future searchers. Maybe folks with the different size HOB AquaFuges could chime in. Thanks!

I replaced it with the exact same pump that came with it. It was a Rio - It's doing just fine.

I have the Large Aquafuge 2 and the included Rio pump is a model 600 which is rated at 200 Gph at zero height. It didn't start up for me yesterday after a cleaning so I"m in the market for a new/better one. I would like a DC pump to fine tune the flow.

The search begins!
