The bubble blaster pumps have proven pretty reliable for the years they've been out. You can't same the same about the Chinese DC Pumps, but Reef Octopus has great warranty if they stop working. Still though...

I've got a RO dcs200 skimmer on my 180. Pump has worked flawless for a year now. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I had the XP2000 and was a worker, SRO is close to it.
