From a technical standpoint, the parameters are greatly exaggerated; a 13W pump will not handle the claimed volume of 350-850 liters, although if you place one wing in a barrel, it will manage.

There is a topic about them, but there are not many reviews. This is a copy of the American one, made by the Czechs (I don't remember exactly, I checked - it's not the Czechs, the Poles make others), similar to my Chinese one. I can't say anything about the pump - I don't know.

Great pumps at a good price. The 13W refers to the power consumption with a needle impeller, not the pump's power itself, so the stated parameters are very close to the truth. There are many reviews on the Australian forum, where they have been successfully used for over 3 years.

Judging by this photo, the pump is not very good, the impeller resembles a Chinese one from the Atman SK 388, it draws air from 60 to 100 liters per hour.

I'll reveal a secret. The pump is a modified German AquaBee UP 2000/1. And the Atman is an Atman, capable of pulling from 60 to 100 l/h. This pump performs as stated. By the way, I posted a video in the thread showing what these "Devils" are capable of. Regarding the impeller, I haven't seen the Atman SK 388, but the impeller from DELTEC is identical. I think they might even be interchangeable, as the pumps are almost the same.

Well, rather than being remade, it's the Chinese version of Aqua-Bee and Deltec. Atman is quite normal; in fact, Atman is based on the American original SWC. ... Although when the pumps and prices are available separately, I might try to replace the Atman 1300 with this one on my "Aquarium Excel." ... And it's a bit unclear what the 13-watt pump can handle in terms of water; two tons? And does it have needles?

Rebecca

Or maybe the other way around? You provided the link yourself, read the last post. I didn't quite understand the question about which 2 tons you are asking about? The pump with needles consumes 13 watts; if you put a regular rotor in it, it will consume three times more.

Why are people attacking this person? Everything is fine with his calculations. Off-topic: So far, no one has worked so seriously/massively and openly with Chinese products on our forum. He is doing great, and it seems beneficial for us too - both in terms of price and choice. Moreover, brands might also lower their prices a bit due to such variety.

Yes, I read it before. It's just hard to understand there - "halera (i.e. haleya)" is definitely the Chinese equivalent of "aquarium medic," and this one is probably similar too. In the parameter for it, it says Air intake: Max. 700L/H - as I understand it, this is how much air or air-water mixture it draws in - it's the equivalent of "aqua-bi 1000" or "aquarium bi 2000." So I need to know if it pumps weaker than "atman 1300" or stronger? ... It turned into tautology, but I think the meaning is clear.

The Aquamedic is an analogue of Hailea. Air intake: Max. 700L/H - this is how much air it draws. Modification of Aqua Bi 2000/1. Stronger.

There is 1 pump specially for you. The price is 530.

No, unfortunately not for me. I need it later, in about two months.
