LF small external pump
I'm looking to make a water mixing station and need a smaller external pump that will go between 2- 30 gallon Brute containers. It would also be used for water changes etc. Anyone have something just sitting around they would like to sell?

Or if you want something a little more high end and reliable you could go with one of the Ehiem compact series

Thanks guys for the ideas. I took a look at both of those pumps.
But if my math is right, I think I want something a bit bigger than that. My RO/DI and SW storage are each 30 Gallons. I was thinking in the area of filling or transferring that water volume in a minute or so. That doesn't seem too unreasonable. 30 gal in a minute = 1800 gallons an hour or 6840/litres/hr. Even the largest Eheim compact is only 5000L/Hr. And it's almost $200 at J&L. So I was thinking of seeing if anyone had a used Iwaki or Panworld I could mount to do the job. I know, I know, maybe I'm being a bit picky about it, but I figured if I'm going to change the way I'm doing it now, I might as well go all out and do it so I never have to re-do it.

If you know someone in the US that can receive this for you (and can get this to you too of course), then this is a cheap pump that I have been very happy with...
