main tank pump

[Athos]

Anybody have any suggestions about what recirc main pump I should use? I currently have a magdrive running now, but its not pushing enough water. I have a 72 bowfront and would like to cycle the water ten times an hour, with about 7.5 feet of head pressure. I keep going back and forth between several different pumps such as the Iwaki, dolphin, supreme magdrive, Eheim the gen x mk4. I'm just not sure. I will be running it in an inline setup not submerged. Space is somewhat of an issue. Thanks for any help anybody can give me.

all i know is the Gen-x is a good pump but makes a bit more noise than the more expensive Iwaki, which often goes recommended and has a good reputation.

other than that gem, i have a friend with a dolphin and he has had no problems in the last couple years that i have heard.

I have had an Iwaki installed for almost a month now and like it a lot. Powerful and pretty quiet, the sound is a smooth "whoosh" that pretty much stays inside the stand when the doors are closed.
