Used this pump to replace the one that came with my fluval flex 32, much quieter and good flow

VERY suitable for indoor fountain. It is not silent, but is MUCH MUCH more quiet than the Aqua Scape 320 GPH with which I am stuck !!!!

I bought this to replace the return pump on my biocube32 which had a tendency to not start up after power loss. After two of the original pumps displayed the same behavior, I decided to go with a better-quality pump. The Syncra 1.0 turned out to be the proper choice. The build quality is exceptional. It's so quiet I don't even here it and the 5-year warranty makes this the perfect choice. I would ready buy Syncra pumps again.

Very quiet and powerful. Fits perfectly in the 3rd chamber of my Fluval Evo 13.5 gal tank. No need to have a power head in the tank anymore. Worth the upgrade from the stock return pump.

Arrived undamaged still sealed in the box. Opened it up, set it up in a bucket of freshwater and ran it for a few minutes. Initially it was very loud, however, after clearing out the air bubbles and properly securing it with the three provided rubber feet (came missing one), it was... still super loud. Took it apart, reassembled it, adjusted the speed settings, no matter what I did, this thing was super loud. Measuring around 43 decibels at two feet away. I have purchased probably over 50 different aquarium pumps over the years of various brands and I can usually troubleshoot them, but this one just didn't budge.Advertised Gallons Per Hour rate was no where close to actual GPH. Ran a tube from the pump out of the 5 gallon bucket and timed how long it took to empty the bucket, so only about 1-2 feet of rise. It took about 156 seconds to pump out 5 gallons of room temperature freshwater at the pump's highest speed setting. That is roughly 2.5 minutes to pump 5 gallons, or in other words, 115 GPH at the highest speed setting.I am assuming I just got a faulty unit because I have Sicce powerheads on my reef tank that are quality and have lasted years. Just bummed that Sicce has such poor quality control at this price point. I even got a little quality control certificate with the pump...obviously someone just printed that up and slipped it in!Overall, a waste of money. Just returned to amazon and waiting on refund. Will continue using my $12 Vivosun 300 GPH pump (still pumping SILENTLY at 300 GPH after 2.5 years, just tested it after the Sicce!) for my reef tank!

I'm Irish and like this pump. Its quiet and easy to clean. This pump fits in the rear chamber of the Fluval EVO 13.5 tank and will give you a nice bump up in flow for the filtration to work better.For the price it is a great pump and will last for years if you keep up with periodic maintenance.

It’s been a year and this pump is still going strong after running almost 24/7 (turn off for feeding tank).It isn’t perfectly silent, but I like it enough I have since got 2 more. One for water changes and another for another tank I am in the process of setting up.

Personally I am very allergic to noise. My used aquarium came with a very noise pump. Had to replace it, and choose this one. Initially, it still made a bit of noise. I guess because there was still some air inside it, or vibrating a bit against the walls of my sump. It's nice and very silent now. Quality build too. Very happy with it.

I received my pump earlier today and here is what I like so far.1. Moves A lot of water compared to the stock pump that came with the Fluval 13.5 as of right now there is a slight dead spot in the tank which is underneath the return nozzles. But very minimal dead spot.2. No modifications the stock return hose that came with the fluval is a bit longer due to the minimal height of this pump so there is a bit of slack. I did not cut it off just in case this pump failed for whatever reason and I had to switch back to the stock fluval pump.3. The noise level is minimal. There is a slight hum... from 3 feet away but you can barely hear it. You won’t loose sleep if it’s in your bedroom.One final comment. when I installed this pump it picked up a lot of uneaten food and other goodies you may find in your sand/gravel tank cleared up within 1 hour. Fish are swimming in the current and look happier.
