Reef octopus varios 2

[UFO8MyCow]

I am looking to get a new return pump and want acontrollable DC one that will hook up to my apex. I have seen a lot of good and quite a few bad reviews of the wave line pumps so I wanted to find something else. I found the reef octopus Varios 2 but haven't read much about them. What else is out there for DC return pumps?

Before anyone says it. I don't need a vectra. I am only running it on a 60 gallon cube. Not to mention they are double the price of the Varios.

I have not owned my varios 2 for long but so far I love it. It's a really quiet pump, had a small hum to it but I don't even have my skimmer plugged in yet (new setup). I have the pump on a 75g and run it on the number 4 setting and seems like plenty of flow for return, I also have a mp40 and mp10 that will be on the tank.

The only other DC pump I have to compare it to is the jebao pump and this seems to be of much better quality and as far as noise I think they're about the same, my jebao 12000 I had for my 150 had this high pitched noise to it but again nothing terrible. I was looking at the vectra but couldn't justify spending that much on a return pump for this small of a tank.

Not sure if this helps you or not but I hope it does. If you want more information or pictures pm me and I'll try to get you the info you may be looking for.

Are there any flow charts published for this pump? I have not been able to find one yet.
