Looking to save money on a used 400 - 600 gph pump to try to build a DIY chiller.

Assuming I get the design down I would also be looking for a used controller.

Im actually putting in shelf above my sump so assuming the in line would be able to pull the water up (after hooking it up to vinyl hose) then I could use either.

Are you sure the pump will pull the water up ?I have a mag drive#5 500 GAL and a Little Giant 3MDQX-SC 1000 GAL .The little giant is not for pressure application so by the time the water gets out the water will lose alot of pressure especially if the water passes through a lot of eldows.

Just wanted to update the thread just in case my request became to specific or went off course (mostly b/c i cant believe the lack of pumps).

Looking for a ~400 - ~500 gph sump pump. Possible models include (but are not limited to) Rio 1400, Rio 2100, Mag 5 and even a Mag 3.
