    I was going to buy an Eheim hobby pump (model #1048 ) to put in my sump for my return pump to my DT. But as I looked at my shopping cart on fosterandmsithaquatics.com , I see a note telling me that the pump is "no longer available". Does this mean they have stopped carrying the product?

    If so, any other suggestions for a good brand return pump?:confused:

    Or is it just not in stock at this time?

    It could be out of stock or an older model. Either way, I'm sure they will replace that model or order more.

    I'm sorry I just clicked the item in my cart and it says it is just on back-order until May.

    Take a look at the quiet one pumps.

    You can buy one of those for a good deal, and then buy an ehiem when they become available again.

    It's always good to have a back up anyway.
