Magnum Specs

These things should be able to kick out some serious flow, at a low wattage… but we have to say they look a bit rollie-polie-ish.

 Magnum Pump

 From Hydor’s site:

The new Koralia models 5-6-7-8 guarantee unbelievable performance for probably the lowest power consumption of any pump on the market. Equipped with an electronic start up system, new technology rotors and propellers, compact in size, these new model will quickly become leaders in their flow categories (6.500-8.500-10.500-12.500 l/hr).

Koralia Magnums have a pleasant design and come with a powerful magnet-suction cup support that rotates to direct water flow easily. Koralias can be positioned safely glass, anywhere in the aquarium. 

Hydor has certainly perked our interest, but thanks to the stats…no thanks to the pictures. If they can perform and are built well they should be a big hit. We hope to see these built in a 12v controllable format in the near future.We spoke with Hydor on the phone, and these will be available in mid August. We will follow up this post with pricing when it is released.

    too bad they’re still not very attractive…

    … agreed ;)

    Still, if you can hide them well and they are priced right… they’ll be a nice option for many.

    I think they look just as good as the first 4 Koralia Pumps, but with some attitude. I’m looking forward to these since I love my Koralia 4 with the sureflow mod.
