It works a treat! i think i'm just eventually gonna upgrade that will include a bigger tank,sump and naturally pump. It's definitely a good choice. you wont' go wrong.@@fishpalace
It depends. They are both quiet but as you increase the power you can start to hear it at higher levels. If this is going to be an issue then I would buy an M2 when an S2 would be sufficient power as you can run it at a lower level and be almost silent
I don’t know and cannot see a minimum on box or on website. What I would say is that if your sump is big enough for the S2 to sit in then there is a good chance it is ok on minimal setting . I would happily put this into say a Red Sea reefer 170 which is big enough for the pump to sit in the return chamber
do you know the barb size/name you mention in the video here? purchased the pump and am installing it. They don't explain this well and I am not sure which one to get
I think the one I got was the s2bo1 set which is specifically for the S2. I picked it up from AAC in Harlow Essex, if you are in U.K. I had to use boiling water to soften the pipework as the barb always looks too big for the tubing. Hope this helps
Cheers Paul 👍
I wish this would fit in my sump
It does have a relatively small footprint
@@fishpalace My Sump is tight.. i had to go with the reef Octo Varios 2
How did you find the Octo, good choice. ?

Can I run it without the intake valve for an open loop? It is about 1 inch too wide for my chamber.
I run my m1 without the intake valve, just use the blue collar and all good for past 5 years. I just decided to fit it for the s2
Hi is the s2 quieter running than the m1 thanks Andy
