Max flow 2500 L/H

Power :65W
Flow @1.5m: ~ 2100L/H

Eheim 1260
Max flow: 2400L/H
Max ht: 3.7m
Power 65W
Flow at 1.5m: ?

Aquabee 2000-1
Max flow: 2000L/H
Max ht: 3m
Power: 33W
Flow @1.5m: ~1250L/H

Aquabee 4000

I need to keep a spare return pump, so I can use it in case main pump give way, so the idea is to get the cheapest one. In this case should I consider China brand?

Using products Made in China or not is purely an individual's choice. I have customers at work demanding no china and eastern europe but some don't bother. I am using Jebao RWs.

Spare...personally i would go, cheaper. To me its about ROI. One don't want to keep a Ecotech M1 in the cupboard.Put in the spare and get a new one and swap it again

Thats my own thought. Opinions differ
