    I ve been reading about the Remora C Pro, And alot of the reviews say to get It with the Mag drive 3 option.
    What is the difference between the Getting it with the rio 1400 compared to the mag drive 3? Is the mag drive 3 worth the extra money?

    The Rio 1400 is prone to failure as is any Rio. THe Larger Rios also have a hard time starting back up after being shut down for a while. No good if you are gone for a few days and something happens.If the impellar cannot spin when power is applied the pumps get very hot! The Mag 3 is also a little stronger making the skimmer function better. The extra pump strength also overcomes the backpressure better giving you quieter operation. Definately worth the extra $18 wil not even sell themwith the Rio pump anymore.
