Models range from 2000 L\/H (18W, 3.0 m maximum head) up to 12000 L\/H (85W, 6.5 m maximum head). Remember that the listed flow is the maximum figure, and real flow drops as lift increases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the pump deliver its maximum flow at its maximum head height?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. The maximum flow and maximum head figures are not achieved at the same time. At the maximum height, the pumps produce 0 l\/h.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes pipe thickness affect performance?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Pipe thickness plays a vital role in head height. The thicker the pipe, the stronger the pump must be to produce good lift, so double-check your plumbing before choosing a model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use these pumps in a saltwater aquarium?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes.
