seio 620 as return pump


Recommended Posts

Need help from SEIO users.

Can the SEIO 620 be used as a return pump for an IOS tank? Can the output of the

seio 620 be directed to a 3/4" hole from the internal sump to main? Planning to get a maxi1200 but looks like the wattage is higher (only 8 watts for seio 620) and may raise the temp of the water too much?

Only see Seio pumps used in the main tank.

If budget is not an issue, go for Aquabee. If not, Sicce pumps are quite acceptable. Don't waste money on other pumps, you will end up changing them 2 months down the road. Other extremely good PRO pumps are too big for your tank setup.
