LF --> Small return pump + Calgary = Happy

It is a good suggestion...I'm just trying to keep the amount of hardware at a minimum. Don't have a controller so I'd need to buy 2 things to have a dc pump.

The controller comes with the pump itself

You won't need anything other than plugging it in the outlet and using pipe to connect to the return.

the new dc pumps such as the ones concepts sell (speedwave) come with a simple controller to adjust the pump's speed. you only need to buy the pump. very happy with mine so far.

Just took a look and it's more than I wanted to spend on a nano tank for a return pump. I guess I'll have to cruise the LFS and see what I can see.

What's the reason for needing inline ? Most pumps like what your after will be submersibles

To have as little heat added to the loop. If anything a chiller is needed than any sort of heat source.
