Stephen in KS Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I don't see it on the website anymore. Did I miss something? I have bought at least three and most of them failed pretty quickly, so I haven't been super impressed with them. I like the new battery backup pump a lot more.

mrPickles Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Not sure if they dropped them or not, but you might want to get a check valve on that if you don’t have one already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllFishNoBrakes Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 The usb nanos definitely have their place. I could totally see the Coop getting rid of them in favor of their battery back up pumps, though. That being said, you can get the nano’s on Amazon for a more preferred price point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a stock photo I found online. That's not my aquarium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dacotua Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 I had two of these USB Nano pumps in the past. Both pumps failed. After the 2nd one, I elected going back to a normal pump and havent had an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonkley Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 From what I remember from live chats, they were just items he found that were reality handy but they were having large failure rates over time. You should just get a single outlet coop pump for indoors anyway, you can always turn down the air pressure. Those pumps were really best used for when you needed a bucket or something short term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen in KS Posted May 19 Author Share Posted May 19 I guess it's back. I was just on the site and it's there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mynameisnobody Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Personally, I’d spring for another $10 or so and have a battery backup. It’s the one thing you’ll wish you had when you need it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually on the site today to buy the dual-outlet battery pump, which is when I noticed this. I already have the single outlet one and like it, so I'm getting the dual.
