Default Water Change Pump Recommendations

Hi.

I was looking for the same thing and didn't have much luck. In the end, I
spent more than I wanted (about US$50 if I recall) to buy a pond water
pump at my local hardware store. It can pump water up a normal flight of
stairs at about the rate that you require. I think it was called a
"little giant" or something like that.

My water change system calls for a pump that could pump 15G of water up 4
feet within a few minutes (around 5 mins). The pump would only be used once
a week (for those 5 or so minutes), or as often as my one tank requires its
water changed. Any recommendations for a cheap, yet somewhat good pump?

Thanks,
Harry

I use a Maxi-Jet 900 (powerhead) for this purpose, same scenario. It
cost about $17 at marindepot.com and it works like a charm
