Topic: I need to borrow a pump Posted: August 11 2005 at 8:47am |
I have my 210 up and 3/4 full of water ( what a job what was ). Anyway, I need a 950 or 1200 mag drive or any other return pump to get the new tank up & running before the big change. Does anyone have one I can borrow or rent for a few weeks. How do I get my ref/sump to cycle with the tank if I do not have a trurn pump???

Fax, that sounds like exactly what I need. Each one will push 1200 gph. I would love to borrow one... I have a single overflow only.

Is the 210 set up with a U tube overflow or is it drilled with a durso in the tank? It may be too much flow for a single U tube, but you could just put a bunch of 90 deg elbows on it per Jon's demo.
Fax
Call me to set up a time to pick it up. You may be able to bug phuntsman (Preston) to grab it for you, I am not far off the freeway. He lives about 10 blocks from you, and drives all over the Wasatch front for work. Just an idea.

I have a Rio I'm using as a spare, so it does nothing right now, it's rated about 1200 gph also.

You guys are the best.... I am in way over my head on this new tank so I need all the help I can get. Fax I am fairly close to Rodney so I will see what I can work out with him. I hate to make people run for me if I dont have too. I will be in touch..

Connie, I have a Mag 36 you could borrow. It put out 3600 gallons per hour, but it sounds like an airplane taking off.
If you get really desparate let me know before 7:30 and I'll bring it with me.

You & ASAD.... That thing would spray water to the roof.... WIll Ill have you look at my new tank. Kinda strange, the overflow is small for a tank that size. I dont think Im going to get enough water down to need a bigger pump then my mag 1200 to get it back to the tank. I am getting Rodney's pump on my way home...
