Ehiem is a very good pump. Lifereef is a very good overflow.

what size tank? that 55 in your avatar? get the Ocean Runner 2500 as quiet as Eheim way cheaper and uses less energy.

Best HOB overflow is hands down Lifereef!

Dont go with the Eheim 1250, it doesnt have enough flow.

I use an Eheim 1260 and it works great on my 65. The pump is dead silent and I watched my temp drop once I removed my Mag 9 :)
