Aquarium Systems Mini-Jets

These tiny pumps are just as reliable and silent as their larger brethren the Maxi-Jets but they come in a miniature package. They are especially useful for nano-reef aquariums and other small displays. In such small displays, these petite pumps can work efficiently yet inconspicuously to provide circulation and oxygenation.

The same holds true with more nitrate. The more you have, the less viable/healthy your aquarium water is.

Take care to not place too much livestock too quickly (variable with type of system, filtration...), nor too much in the long haul, nor over-feed the system... as all can and will cause trouble with overloading your biological filtration (among other things).

Too Late! Ammonia, Nitrite Too HIGH!!!

Should you ever find your system ammonia or nitrite concentrations approaching 1.0 ppm due to overloading, mis-feeding,

Then there will always be the one hobbyist who has kept a fish

This would necessitate a panicked call from a customer and a special trip. I no longer use any Rio pumps and I dont recommend others use them for the reasons I outlined above.

I dont want to give the impression that I have nev

They look similar to a large T fitting. Water is pumped up through the bottom and the water exits in an alternating pattern from each side.

Just like the Hydor Flo, these units reduce the water flow because they use that pressure to create the alternating pattern. Again, I dont feel like that is a major shortcoming. It is simply a tradeoff that one must make for the wave-like action. That said, I do think these units have one major weakness. They only come with barb fittings, and they are not very good barb fittings at that. I would much prefer if they came wi
