Super Fricken Deal on my Favorite Submersible Pump – Get it NOW!
So as you guys know I do a ton with aquatics/aquaponics. Over the years I tried a lot of pumps and have settled on Danner for life expectancy. Yea you have to clean them more often than a dirty water pump but they last for years if maintained.
Today someone happened to ask about some equipment recommendations and was going to buy a pump I recommended years ago “Lanchez Dirty Water”, it is a good pump but tends to crap out at 18-24 months in my experience. I recommended he look at the Danner and gave him recommendations on the other stuff he asked for. (sponge filters, air pumps, etc.)
When I looked up the Danner for him the first thing I did was order one as a second back up to keep on the shelf. I use this pump in ALL my large systems (all 4 of them) so I keep one on the shelf incase of a problem at all times. This pump I have bought quite a few of, the last time I ordered one for the shelf it was 130 dollars. Right now it is 80 bucks.
See why I ordered one? That is 50 bucks off and I consider it the top value in pumps at this level at full price, it is why I personally standardized.
You want the best deal I have seen on a larger pump, GET THIS ONE NOW. Look at what happened the the slightly larger one (3000 GPH) it went up from 150ish to 200!
Here it the thing, I can’t link directly to it on Amazon for some reason, so here is how to find it. Go to this link,
Danner Manufacturing, Inc. Pondmaster Waterfall/Skimmer Pump 2000 GPH, 02650
It should be the first item after any sponsored links. Again I have 4 of these running, I have one on the shelf as a spare and at this price I am going to now have two back ups, two is one and one is none. Now you guys likely don’t have 4 large systems so you may only want one back up. At this price get one.
If you run a larger system already and don’t have a back up, get a back up, if not you will have a big problem not if but when your pump dies. If you need a back up even if you are on another pump unless you are in love with it, GET THIS NOW.
SPECIAL NOTE – if you are on a different pump and end up having to swap out, you may need different fittings, etc. If so get that all set up BEFORE YOU NEED IT. This is why I have standardized on two pumps. This one for my large systems and the Active Aqua for all small systems or other needs. If a pump dies as long as I have a back up, swap time is 1-3 minutes. More on this in todays IOTD on air segment.
Bought three. What’s a typical size setup for one of these? I’m brand new to this so want the easy button.
Is there any reason to test these out before storing long term as a backup?
I picked up a few to have as backup for our bog filter, it currently runs on a hy-drive 4800 which are unavailable. This is lower flow but I think would still be plenty for the bog in a pinch.
Thanks for the heads up!
