What's the difference between the Danner AP-20 and the Pondmaster AP-20? The look identical.

I have no ideal. I purchased, installed lines to multiple 6 inch stones in outdoor KOI pond. 1200 gal pond It makes air and makes fish happy. Other than that I couldn't tell you. It does work and blows air

Pondmaster is one of several brands of Danner Manufacturing, Inc. (see: http://www.pondmaster.com/), so they are identical. More importantly, Danner makes a gasket & valve repair kit for the AP-20, which permits maintenance and repair of the gaskets, which are the first components to ultimately fail.

I have owned both. There doesn't seem to be any difference. BOTH have given me 2 1/2 years of continues running service. Make sure you pick the size you need for your pond.

I am using both of them on a fluval g3, it has two baskets, using them at the same time but not mixed, sorry but I can say wich one is better for obviously reasons, but together are awesome.

Unsure of difference. But the reviews I have seen rate the WaterBob very highly.

I'm looking to buy one. Such a good question but no one seems to know the answer. :(update: I think they are the same except one is more cheaply built. But which one?? Who knows...could be the higher priced one!

They are both almost the same as far as wattage and size. The R20 is lighter, weight wise than the R30. That's was about the only difference I could see.

No idea. Not that I could tell the difference but the paddle seems of very high quality. For $30 I don't think you'll be disappointed.

The 10-watt model is rated for up to 1500 gallons, the 20-watt for up to 3000 gallons (http://www.amazon.com/Pondmaster-02910-Violet-Clarifier-10watt/dp/B00025YVGW/ref=pd_sim_lg_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1R49KXXSFNEBR4QAJTRK ). These lights work only on planktonic algae, not string algae. If your pond is in direct sunlight, has a severe planktonic algae problem, and has no pond plants to compete with the algae for nutrients, you may want to consider the 20-watt model; otherwise, the 10-watt model should be suitable for a 650 gallon pond. If your pond has fish, ideally you should use a pump that will recycle the entire volume of the pond every hour; that is, a pump rated for no less than 650GPH (gallons per hour). If your pond filter is positioned higher than the water surface of your pond, the head height of the pump will need to be considered, because it reduces the flow of the pump. You would likely find it very helpful to visit a store that sells Koi and pond supplies. Owners of those shops usually have a lot of experience building ponds and dealing with water quality issues, and they are happy to help you purchase the right equipment.

They appear to be the same. However, I really don't know. They both can be mounted on the same sized pole. The birds really love their new watering hole!

The augers on my snow thrower are solid disks like the top photo. The other photo is wrong.-mike

We have one of each. They are identical. As stated by the previous comment:"Just sold by a different seller on amazon." To sum it up: The BugZooka is one of the best and most effective tools we ever got!!!

Thank you for your interest in our product Mark. The main difference between the Aquabot APRVJR Pool Rover Junior and the S20-40 is the Rover Jr is for ABOVE GROUND ONLY. The S20-40i can be used in above and inground systems.

I can't be positive as I haven't seen both live side by side. It looks to me that the only difference is the color of the paint. Specs look the same to me. Walt E.

The difference is most likely going to be material quality. I use the Vermont American all the time and it does the job right on the spot, like a pro without it that has everything set into muscle memory. They look the same but one is going to last longer than the other, so go by the one that has better reviews by people.

Not sure but they look similiar in size. Mine is still working fine. A buddy of mine was using it on our last trip a month ago and caught a bunch of rock fish and sculpin with a 12 oz sinker.

Stephanie, For specs check out the AquaPure site: http://www.aquapurefilters.com/store/product/200637.200659/ap817.html?utm_source=bing&utm_term=AP817&utm_campaign=Models+%28AP%29&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=sDTjJaeXE%7Cpcrid%7C%7Bcreative%7D%7Cpkw%7CAP817%7Cpmt%7Ce%7C And, by the way, it looks like you can get a better price from them right now.

Vermont American is now owned by Bosch, so they could be the same design. Perhaps Bosch uses better materials on their "name brand", I don't know. For the price difference and based on reviews, I'm going with the V.A.

Well, it certainly looks the same. Since I've never handled the ACE one, it's a bit hard for me to say. This one is very heavy and sturdy, and it works fine, though I was equally happy with a less expensive one I ordered some years ago that was starting to wear out due to heavy use. I was annoyed at the price of this when I bought it, but decided that I'd give it a try hoping for top quality. I think it might have been a bit cheaper at that point, too, but I'm very pleased with it. In any event, good luck.
