Best pump for return
The T3's put out allot of heat and I KNOW you'll end up needing a chiller.
The Quiet ones are not Quiet and overheat way to easy (I am referring to the
new and old models). I'd never do a mag drive..noisy, and some of the
flimsiest housing I've ever seen, however they are cheap..but you get what
you pay for. I personally would try an Eheim hobby pump maybe the 1261 or
1262. Unfortunately the Eheim pumps are not cheap...mine set me back a few
hundred bucks. Just my 2 cents.

Hey everybody, thanks for reading.
I am having a very difficult time deciding on a pump for my return line. I
have considered a GRI (Gorman Rupp) 510 (can't find much feedback on
these),
Custom Sealife velocity T3 (worry about heat exchange with this one) and
a
Lifegard Quiet One. I could really use some input on this decision. Please
let me know what you are using good or bad. If there is a pump I'm missing
let me know about it.
My main qualities I'm looking for are quietness, heat exchange and
durability.
I'm looking for around 600-800 gph at 4.5' head.
Thanks so much,
Ken
