Hi. Im looking for a cheap, used Rio pump or simular that pumps around 500-700gph. My 2500 went dead. I use it as a utility pump for like mixing, water changes, etc. I also would be willing to maybe trade for frags if the seller was interested. Let me know! Thanks a lot!!

why do you want a Rio... arn't they notorius for burning out after about 6-8 months? especially if you run them with any kind of head pressure.

I also have a generic pump that looks like the rio that does 2200/lhr, not sure what that is in gph, but I think its double the rio1100 so might be in the right ballpark for you. it works, but not sure of the brand

DennisW · 11-29-2004, 11:34 PM

Oh.no..no...no...no......I dont care what brand it is!!!! I guess maybe I should have just said a submersible pump. Im just using it as a mixing/water changeing utility pump.

Sanblas...that pump that does 2200L per hour would be about perfect. PM me with a price and how we can meet up to exchange. Ive got 30gal of saltwater that needs to be mixed ASAP!!

Thanks!!
