I just got a wp60. This thing is a beast

I just ordered one, it's being shipped from china though so it'll probably take a couple weeks. My buddy was impressed with my wp40 so I also just ordered him two wp25's, I think I may order myself a 25, or just order another 60 and move my 40 to my smaller tank even though it may be too much.

Where's the best place to get these from? I need a dc6000 for a return. Is fish street the only place? I saw them on amazon but they were expensive.

I've bought all mine off eBay. Didn't check fish.

When I ordered mine it said it was coming from Hong Kong but it shipped from New Jersey got it in 3 days

Fish-street and they will warranty the pumps

I run two wp40's on my 6'x2'x23" tank and have since they first came out and I love them. I just recently sold the two tunzes I replaced. I could care less about some childish, jelouse post about those overpriced mp40's. Anyone can do a search and find tons of complaints on those pumps. Even damaging tanks. In my opinion people are upset because they spent a bunch of money in a pump to brag and look cool then the wp40's came out and they feel cheated. Well guess what- they probably were. Just accept it and stop bashing the wp40's and the people who buy them. At this point its starting to look foolish. Thus is for all the wp40 haters. Not one in perticuler. BTW I own an a/c business in south Louisiana so this isn'ta budget thing . In my mind its a great piece of equipment for a realistic price. Sorry rant is over but I'm tired of every time someone says something good about these pumps there's always a hater that just has to butt in.

I have the same size tank but 30in high. I'm going to try one wp60 and see what I get

Agreed. I run two wp40s on a 140 controlled with my apex. Best powerhead deal going. People have a longstanding belief that expensive=better in this hobby... Not always....

I have two wp-25's in my new 75g. One powerhead is enough to make some nice waves in this tank, so I'll probably set the other to normal flow. I bought both off eBay (along with a DC6000 which I'm also impressed with). My plan was to use these until I save up for the Vortech's, but I'm starting to question that idea because I really like these wp-25's, and you can't beat the price. In fact I'll probably order a couple more as backups.

All I run is chinese knock offs lol. 5 x custom made 120w LEDs ($120ea)
And jebao powerheads.
If I didn't have chinese knock offs. My tank would be stuck with 90's leftover technology lol.

Ordered myself a WP10 for my 20L. Was going to go with a WP25 but heard that'd be way too much for my tank. From what I can tell (reviews, feedback) they are well worth the cost.

Good heads-up, Chris. Makes sense... Twice the pumps, twice the power needed.

Did my first cleaning of my WP40's today and I didn't see any sings of wear or anything out of the normal. I've only been running them for about 3 months though...
