Default Small Inline pump


Does anybody know of a small inline pump (60gph max) for a closed loop
filter?

I suppose I could use a once through design with a dosing pump, but I
was hoping for something that would create a continuous flow.

I can find small power heads, but nothing for a pump.

CalPump website claims that their P60 mag drive pump is salt-water rated
(if you get a ceramic shaft)...

There is no link to the specific 60 gph model (P60), but it is listed in
the ratings chart on the lower portion of that page...

and more from a Google search on CalPump P60. They look mostly like Pond
supply places. You might want to contact the manufacturer directly...

Thanks. I was looking for something where I could hook a input/return
hose to it. It's anaerobic, so I don't want any contact with air.

Check into the pumps used for statuary in landscaping. Some of them have
controls that allow you to adjust the flow rate. Here's one.
