Haagenize Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I need an external pump for only 4gph, to a max of 20gph Does anyone know if there's any products to match what I need? Link to comment

Haagenize Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 aqua lifter is about all i can think of. So if i have 2 holes at the bottom, I could use the aqua lifter for 3.5gph? (max they say) If so, could I attach the Tom Aquatics Aqua Lifter Suction Pre-Filter before it goes to the aqua lifter? I might have to get 2 if i use this, because 3.5gph will be around 1-2 once u add some height in account edit: the what do you call it, width of the tube? is too small, I was hoping for at least 1/2" so I could install bulkheads and strainers Link to comment
Haagenize Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 oops sorry for the double post Okay so say I get a Eheim 1046, which says its external, it has a 79 gph rate. So if I put the pump say through 60" of tubing, this will most likely slow down the gph rate right? will this damage the pump, or is this okay Edit: so this tom aquatics rapids mini canister: http://www.marinedepot.com/ps_ViewItem~act...es~vendor~.html goes 80gph, but it says its only once a hour, could I keep this operating non stop? probably not Link to comment
disaster999 Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 what are you using this pump for? Link to comment
Phixion Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I have a Tom's and it runs 24/7... Not sure what you mean by can it run non-stop? Link to comment
