    I've read the sticky, but don't quite understand it about the impeller starting in the right direction. The reason I ask is because I'm deciding between the Octopus extreme EXT-200 or the octopus DNWB-200. Whats the difference besides the pump ahttp://www.saltysupply.com/Reef-Octopus-Extreme-Series-EXT-200-p/oc1045.htmd which should i go for? thank you !!
