Replacement Pump For IM Fusion 20 AIO

Marco S · May 4, 2020

I have a Innovative Marine Nuvo Fusion AIO 20 gallon and the return pump is starting to make load noises. I cleaned it out and it is still pretty load. I am thinking it may be on its last leg as I have had it for a couple years now and I am not sure of the quality of the default return pump it came with. I have been looking around and cannot seem to find the name and specs of the pump it came with so I figured I would ask here if anyone either knows the pump they come with and or a good replacement pump. I want to stick as close to the original specs as possible since this tank is full of coral and I want to keep everything as stable as possible without too much of a change in flow. It has been a very successful tank up to now so I do not want to change anything.

Thanks in advance for any help! ;Happy

I replaced mine with either a Sicce 0.5 or a 1.0 ….. it's been a few years so i don't entirely recall which. Either way you need to make sure the pump physically fits.

I don’t know for sure what they come with, but I know a lot of people use the soccer syncra pumps on the IM nuvos.

MightyJet. I use the larger version, but the smaller is probably closer to the stock pump.

I have a Sicce 1.0 that I originally bought for my UV Sterilizer before I realized I needed a stronger pump, but it is too big to fit in the Fusion. Maybe the .5 is smaller. I will have to measure and make sure, but I really want the flow to match what I currently have. That is the most important to me.
