Default Pumps

Haha right on Todd!


To reduce the amount of equipment in the display, I plan on using an external sump return and a closed loop.
I found a lovely Iwaki MD-40 (Japanese motor) on ebay for a good price that I think I will use to run the closed loop.




This is the one that I am planning for the return. I'm not too familiar with this pump but I have heard that they are made by Pan World - if that's the case it should be great. I was always very pleased with my Blueline 20HD.





Between these two pumps, I am anticipating about 30x turnover after losses. That is actually less than what I would have liked, even on a softies tank... we'll see how it goes though.

(I can't get the photos hosted by google to display in the thread, anyone know what I'm doing wrong?)
