LF small return pump

Midknight · #1 11-22-2006, 04:22 PM

As stated I am looking for a small return pump.
Also what would be the best one. Looking for one that takes up the least amount of space.
Want to put in the back of my new 10 G I am building. The refugium/sump will be attached directly to the back and should be about 8” deep, 10” wide & 12 tall.
So any help (or pump) would be appreciated.

I use a maxijet 900 to pump up to an above tank refugium. Maxijets are pretty small & reliable.

It is not an above refugium/Sump but a rear tank.
This is the plans.

So you think just a power head instead of a return pump would work for this then.

maxi 9 or 12 would be good. you don't want a ton of turnover in a fuge.
