Do not buy from him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I sent $225.00 for a Reefflo Snapper and never received the pump.
It was never shipped.
juny00605 gets a tracking # from paypal but that is generated so the
USPS can pick up the package. You can keep tracking the package but it never shows any movement.

I wouldn't sell him anything either unless you want to be ripped off.

Juny00605 says he from Kissimmee, Fl
but really is from Puerto Rico

Already posted this on the sellers and buyers forum.

Did you pay with PayPal? If so, call them and file a claim. You may have to wait 30 days, but you will get your money back.

Thanks Floyd

Definitely. Always better to have more flow than you need and put a valve to control it rather than being short should you upgrade in the future.

I here ya but I'm trying to keep the wattage down.
barracuda is like 225w and the snapper is like 98w.

I had a 300g with a hammerhead and the electric bill was outragous!!!

fitt, I have a 180 and run a reeflo dart gold snapper. Its great only 98 watts. But alot depends on how far your pump is from your tank. If you are going from the sump in the basement and returning up to the first floor you need a strong pump. Keep in mind if you have standard overflows in your tank, because of the return and drain plumbing size you can only put out 600gph per overflow. Meaning you would need at least 1200 for a 180. You also lose some gph every four feet in plumbing. I forgot how much you lose per four feet, maybe someone can chime with the right loses of gph.

Hey Floyd, I have been advertising a rebuilt Reeflo pump for $150. I think it is a snapper, will check when I get home if you are interested.

nothing is cheap when it comes to power, however even the good leds are 200somthing watts for a 2ft area. 225watts for a cudda isnt really that bad.and everyone is corect, go bigger in case you change and run from down under.lol i bout a pump 6years ago that wuz way to big for my 75, 1750gph w 40ft head.lol now it runs my 210 sweeetttt.and wide open. mabey there wuz a short even at my high rates 250watt is only like 25$ at the month

Ok Thanks Jeff,


Rich I was also considering that pump but the snapper/dart hybrid is less expensive.
The tank is 210g fowlr, little to no corals. The sump is under the stand so the return won't be that far. For over flows I did the coast to coat internal with 2-1.5" drains
and 1- 1.5" emergency drain. (Bean Animal).

Any input would be great
