    I guess it all depends on your budget.

    I'm thinking of the messener auga varioflow pump. 20k ltr but you can turn em right down, they're also been getting good reviews too

    i think the messener pump are a little over my budget, but the jeboa dc variable pumps look good, can they be left out in the open or does the controller need to be under cover

    My jebao only lasted 3 days before dying.

    Had I seen them before, I'd have got one of these; http://www.absolute-koi.com/prod2333.html

    I use Aquamax dry pumps and have found them to be very reliable and reasonably priced, I've had one of mine running for about 7/8 years without any problems.
    The downsides are they're not variable speed and it's difficult to get a watertight seal on the connections.

    Pump recommendations

    Same as that; Superfish for the last 5-6 years and never had any major issues. I do like the Jabeo DC variables mind you, I'm tempted to try one...
