Large pump recommendations?

[LostMind]

I am thinking to get a larger tank... and I want to have some really good flow going thru it.

The highest rated pump I can find at JL's is the dolphin ampmaster 3000

even at 8' of head, it will still put out 2500gph or so.

Anyone have any experience with this pump? Anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks!

I have a few ampmasters - 6 I think, and for all the hobble about seals on some of the RC threads I havent experienced the same.

That being said I just switched to two of their 1hp pumps which are very loud but do about 3 times the water volume of the ampmaster.

Just ensure you dont take the piping size down until the last plumbing fixture.


try dolphinpumps.com, think thats it.

I am not certain but i think that you can get jaccuzzi pumps that have bigger flow rates.

you can try the mag 36 or pondmaster 3600. they are pumping about 1000 gal at 14' head. I think they are about 385 watts. check out www.pondmaster.com

Thanks guys :P

Wendell, I really like those larger dolphins! Where did you order them from?

[zulu_principle]

J&L can order them in for you.
