The fact that the manufacturer wants you to valve them back is one of the reasons I wanted to go with this pump. For an application in a smaller tank the flow chart for the snapper shows that it can be throttled all the way down to 300gph using a total of 75 watts.

I'm going to be using a Snapper as well on my 28g nano. I chose it because of my previous experiences with Reeflo pumps, and because of the wattage draw options.

It sounds like you have a good idea about what you want to do, and I really hope it works out for you.
