Plumbing/Pump options for 120gal?

xxnonamexx · 10-20-2006, 01:55 PM

Well I ordered my 120gal low iron glass from glass cages 1 overflow in the back predrilled. I am looking to get a Durso overflow and also a MegaFlow Overflow kit. The problem is looking into a pump. I like in internal sump pumps like a MAG7. What would you suggest as far as internal pumps for the return. Thanks

Mag 7 would only give you roughly about 400 gph back into the tank, way too wweak for a 120g.
Try an Eheim 1262.
