Eheim 1262

What he said. You'll never have to buy another, and it'll easily handle carbon/gfo reactors for you as well. I use one for my 120

I just bought an Eheim 1262 for my 90. Quiet and powerful. No complaints here.

I think you could get by w/ a 1260, and agree, Eheim are my fav, last forever, never hear them.

I have a tunze silence 1073.02 on my 90g with 33g sump. It's great, quiet and good flow.

I have the old model of the Eheim 1262 and it's a quiet powerhouse. It seriously makes no noise and runs like a champ. I run some cheap knock off equipment (my powerhead) but for my return pump I went with a known brand. My powerhead can fail while I'm away and not cause issues. If the return pump fails you are in for trouble.
