IceCap EVO 1000 Water Pump

Compact Water Pump for Smaller Aquarium Systems

The IceCap EVO 1000 is the smallest model in IceCap's EVO pump lineup, built to be compact, quiet, and energy-efficient for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. It can be used as a return pump, to provide flow to a media reactor, to feed an algae scrubber, or for other general water-moving tasks in the system.

Delivering up to 264 GPH with 3.6ft of maximum head height, the EVO 1000 suits smaller aquariums or applications that don't need high-volume flow, while its 15-watt draw keeps it economical to run continuously.

Key Features:

• Delivers up to 264 GPH of flow
• Maximum head height of 3.6ft
• Runs on just 15 watts for efficient 24/7 operation
• Compact 5 x 3.75 x 4.5in size fits smaller sumps and cabinets
• 1/2–3/4in hose barb outlet fits standard aquarium plumbing
• Suitable for both freshwater and marine aquariums

Ideal For:

• Small to nano aquarium return pump applications
• Feeding a single media reactor or algae scrubber
• Hobbyists with limited sump or cabinet space

Pro Tips:

• Match head height to your plumbing run. With a 3.6ft maximum head, the EVO 1000 works best for shorter vertical lifts rather than tall sump-to-display setups.
• Check your outlet size before plumbing in. The 1/2–3/4in hose barb outlet fits most standard tubing without extra adapters.
