Well its finally happening all my return pumps are starting to go one by one, i suppose they do work rather hard. This morning i walked into the garage and noticed the pump to the frag tank had failed during the night, so took the dreaded drive to Northlands, as money for a pump at this time of the month is not in my budget. When i got there i was informed that there were no king 3 pumps in stock and the only one in that flow range was the ATI and i immediately thought 'here we go, break out the credit card'. To my surprise the 3800L per hour is only R800.00 and the big one i think is 4900L ph is R900.00. I was fairly surprised i really expected them to be in the price range of the OR.
Moral of the story is if you looking for a return pump do consider taking a look at the ATI they are really well priced for a great little pump.
 
Thanks Alan. Another great value for money pump I have found is a Hydor. Found mine at Builders Express for Approx R650-00. Comes with a 2 year guarantee and pumps about 4500l/h. Max head is about 3.2m IIRC. A great little pump too, looks just like my Eheim.

Howzit Alan, I saw your post.

Thought I'd grab a quick look at the pump labels!

Specifications of ATI return pump models, CURRENTLY in SA

A4000 3800L 69W 3.1m

They are well priced, compact, very energy efficient, and quiet.
