About Little Giant Quarium Series Pumps
MDQ and MDQX aquarium pumps are non-submersible, magnetic drive pumps used for in-line filtration, recirculation, tank return and other applications which involve handling fresh and salt water. These pumps feature a thermally protected, UL listed and CSA certified magnetic drive motor which resists overheating caused by clogging of the impeller by sludge, seaweed and other media.
MDQ series have a higher head and lower flow rating, whereas MDQX has a lower head and higher flow.
Aquarium pumps are most commonly installed in the cabinet below the aquarium, which contains filtration and other equipment.
Quarium series pumps incorporate a glass-filled polypropylene volute, ceramic shaft and washers, ceramic coated impeller driven magnet and Nitrile O-rings.

Why don't we show the price?
While PexUniverse.com reserves the legal right set its own product pricing, some
manufacturers require internet retailers to display a price at or above
manufacturer's established MAP ("Minimum Advertised Price").
Since our price for this product is lower then MAP, the manufacturer does not allow
us to display our lowest price until you place the product in the shopping cart.
This allows us to continue offering our lowest prices while staying consistent with
product manufacturer's policy.
This process does not require you to purchase the product - it can be easily
removed from shopping cart if needed.
We understand that this is an inconvenience and are continually working with
manufacturers to educate them on how MAP affects our customers.
