No...there is a pump manufacturer called "Mag" Their pumps are generally named something like Mag 12, Mag 10, etc.

I didn't think magnums were submersible. I have a big magnum 350 running my skimmer (Ron's saltwater heaven - which does a great job), but it's sure not submersible. Help me out (yet again).

In all I have used 4 rio 2500, 2 rio rio 2100, and 4 rio 180, All but 1 ended up leaking into the motor and ended up burning out. In that same time frame I have had a mag 350 that has run perfectly for me for about 6 years now. Stay away from the rio. I really like the mag pumps for a submersible pump. I use 2 mag 7's for my main tank and the mag 350 pumps into my refugium.

I know a lot of stories involved about the quality of them and how a lot of people had problems with them. What can you tell me about them? any comment? experiences?
