Yes that is true! My first one worked with 3, 9 inch fusers in 8 feet of water.
The one I got from Mr. Ted only worked with 2 fusers in 6 to 7 feet of water.
So you are taking a chance there, but I never had any issues with 2 fusers at 6 feet. Although I was not using Vertex fusers which do from what I understand do have quite a few more smaller slits then the diffuser express fusers I been using and am still using today with my GAST pump. They are fine bubble fusers just dont have as many small slits as the vertex which in turn I think take a bit more push to get them to boil. That's what I have seen anyway.
Ted also sent me some vertex fusers I never got a chance to test them though as the pump he sent me barely worked with the 2 express fusers so I knew it wouldn't work with the vertex. Others on this site have claimed they used the Eco7 in 10 foot of water? I wish I would have had my first pump to test on the vertex fusers just to see what would have happened. It would seem I may have gotten a GREAT pump for my money! As Bill says buyer beware those Eco7 pumps are cheaper but you may be taking a chance on the pump. I would think he would be fine in 6 foot of water though with 2 of the express fusers or 1 vertex fuser. Bottom line is, it's what he can afford at this point. Like myself I was strapped for money and just bought the land and pond I had so I went with what I could afford. It worked for me at the time, but like I said once you start to get more and more invested in your pond it felt real GOOD to upgrade my pump knowing it could do the job no matter what!!
