Jebao DCP Sine Wave Aquarium Water Return Pump

Matthew R. GarvoilleMatthew R. Garvoille: Very unfortunately, mine arrived with the intake screen broken. Little frustrating as I am unable to find another, but decided to use it as is in its dedicated internal section. Currently, I have this running to begin cycling my system. It is plumbed to the 1st floor from the sump in my basement. I ran 1 1/2” from the pump to where the tank will be, but until the tank is built, I have it running through my rather elaborate sump system. It is wet for a week now. As you can probably tell from the picture, it is currently routed to the 1” cross pipe to circulate the sump only. I have it on the lowest power and it pumps a lot of water, even through the 1” pipe. When I turn it up, I definitely wonder if I should’ve gone with 2” gravity drains between tanks, because I haven’t gone past 60%, and it starts having intermittent siphons through the drains(should’ve drilled 2 per tank). I’m thinking when it’s pumping to the display that’ll be about 12’ head pressure, I’ll be very pleased with the power and flow. It has a very tolerable hum when running. Could probably be made even quieter as I have no silicone pad under it and it’s 100% hard plumbed. Even like I have...

Amber SAmber S: What a fantastic value, I'm typically a buy American kind of person, but in this case I was in dire straits, needed something cheap/fast, and Jebao came through. Previously using an old Reeflo Hammerhead pump which consumed around 300 watts. When my bearings went out and I couldn't get a response from the manufacturer quickly, I knew replacement was the only option. With Reeflo's cheapest options being in the $300 range and money tight right now I decided to give this pump a go. Currently using around 43 watts and absolutely silent. Couldn't be happier! I'll update this review with longevity but I get the feeling I won't be back for awhile!

Well over a year later and this pump is still silent, efficient, and no leaks or issues. Wouldn't hesitate to buy again.

Cornelio RojasCornelio Rojas: Pump works very well and it is extremely quiet and powerful. The controller is sensitive to the touch for programming. It was very well packaged and it has plenty of accessories for different applications . The inlet screen is great due to the fact that he keeps any animals from getting caught up in the impeller, snails, crabs , shrimps, etc. overall very good pump. The only thing I did notice they could’ve improved on was the base plate. It slides on and off very loosely. They could’ve made it to a slightly tighter fit and it would’ve been a lot better.

rgulrichrgulrich: Using a DCP18000 in a basement 150 gallon Rubbermaid sump for a 300 gallon ground floor reef - located about 20-25 feet over and one floor up. Plumbed to 1 1/2 inch flex pvc then Y'd at the reef to 1 inch. Replaced a popular external AC pressure pump. Running at 44% power, moves the water like I want without my having to use a valve to restrict flow. All this wih much much less electricity use. While the controller isn't as tactile-friendly as others, it is nonetheless very precise once you get used to it.
I've had good experience with the DCP line for a while now (on the main reef and the frag system) - quiet, efficient, and easy to control. Yes, that's another one (a DCP10000) at the far end of the picture that runs a 3-foot long waterfall algae filter along with my GFO/carbon and Polyfilter reactors. The DCP10000 replaced yet another AC pump in July 2017 and has been running flawlessly since.

Incloud Design: This pump is incredibly silent, has no heat what so ever and is monstrously powerful. I can't believe how much better this pump is than all the expensive pumps I've foolishly paid for in the past. One problem (major) is the controller does nothing. I've tried to decipher the poorly written instructions to the best of my ability and no matter what I press or for how long, the buttons do nothing. All I can do is plug the pump in and it runs full blast. I'm hoping I'm missing something and someone can chime in with help. I can't use the pump until it can be adjusted because it is way too powerful for my setup. I must have got a bad controller and unfortunately that's where amazon and its' great prices loses. I have no idea who to talk to or where I would send it back. Worst part is I dismantled my system and was relying on the pump to run it. Pump itself is outstanding if it works as it should.
