Why Choose the Mantis Turbo Pro 20000?
The return pump is the heart of any sump filtration system, continuously circulating water between your aquarium and filtration equipment. The Turbo Pro 20000 has been engineered to deliver exceptional flow, outstanding reliability and excellent energy efficiency while providing complete control over water movement.
The intelligent controller allows precise adjustment of water flow to match your overflow capacity, helping reduce drain noise and improve the performance of protein skimmers, reactors and other filtration equipment. Operating the pump only as fast as required can also reduce electricity consumption and extend pump life.
Who Is the Turbo Pro 20000 Best Suited For?
The Turbo Pro 20000 is ideal for large marine reef aquariums, freshwater display aquariums, fish rooms, coral propagation systems and larger sump filtration systems where high water turnover and reliable long-term performance are essential. Its adjustable flow also makes it an excellent choice for aquariums with complex plumbing or multiple filtration components.
Suitable Applications
- Large marine aquariums
- Reef aquariums
- Freshwater aquariums
- Sump return systems
- Large filtration systems
- Protein skimmer feed systems
- Media reactors
- UV steriliser feed pumps
- Aquarium circulation systems
- Water transfer applications
Choosing the Correct Return Pump
The maximum flow rate is measured under minimal head pressure. Actual water flow decreases as vertical lift and plumbing resistance increase. Pipe diameter, pipe length, elbows, valves and connected equipment all influence the final flow delivered back to your aquarium.
With a maximum head height of 8 metres, the Turbo Pro 20000 is an excellent choice for larger aquarium systems requiring high pumping capacity and significant vertical lift. The adjustable controller allows you to fine-tune flow to achieve the ideal balance between water turnover, filtration efficiency and quiet operation.
Maintenance
- Clean the impeller and pump housing regularly.
- Inspect the intake for debris and blockages.
- Never operate the pump without water.
- Inspect ceramic bearings during routine servicing.
- Keep the controller dry and well ventilated.
