{"product_id":"icecap-fp-series-flow-pump","title":"IceCap FP Series Aquarium Flow Pump","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe IceCap FP Series are controllable DC flow pumps that keep water moving in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. A directional propeller design pushes a broad, gentle stream that clears dead spots, boosts surface gas exchange, and carries food and nutrients to corals and filter feeders. Each pump runs on a variable-speed controller so you can dial the flow to the tank instead of being stuck at one fixed speed.
