I'm using Rio 26HF for my 5x2.5x2ft with 4ft sump tank. Really powerful pump. Definitely cheaper and greater output compared to Eheim's 1264. Strong humming though...

Agree.. But the Rio 26HF I had stopped working after awhile. I went to get a 1264 and have had no reliability issues so far.. *touch wood*

ehiem 1264 or 1262 for reliability and long life span

so i guess the best is still eheim.. silent and long lasting.. I have to invest abit more for a long term use..
