Elemental Air Pump

[cicrush13]

Hey guys,

I'm looking to re-do my air pumps in my fish room and came across the Elemental Air Pumps.
I am looking at the 951 gph model for my 12 tanks.

I would like to know if anyone has one, do you like it, how noisey it is, how many tanks you run on it, etc.

Thanks!

I've never heard of an air pump output stated as gph. To most folks that means gallons per hour. Air pumps are normally in CFM or CIM Cubic feet per minute or cubic inches per minute. GPH ,makes it harder to compare to other pumps.
Personally I use a Pondmaster AP100 but I've got a lot of tanks. The pump itself is quite. The air filters in the tanks not so much. But they aren't in my main house so it's not a problem. In the house I use the Tetra pumps. Unless the wife vacuums and moves them so they don't sit flat they are dead silent.

Is it an Air pump or water pump?

It's an air pump.

I just got it up and running and it has good pressure to run 13 sponge filters.
I might suggest the next size up for anything more.

I got this a few months ago and it works great on keeping 14 sponges going.
Recommended for those who want to keep fewer pumps running and keep many tanks!
