Hi all !!!

I will build a sump in my basement so i need to know what kind of return pump i need and where to get that pump

Display tank will be 180 gallon with built in overflow  on the first floor

Sump downstair.... so 15 feet max to reach top of display tank

Thanks

A Posiedon pump will get you about 700 GPH depending on which model you choose. Quietest pump on the market (if they still are) for the money.

I use one from my basement sump to my 120 on the main level.

They are quite pricey... I would try to find a used one.

also look into Octopus water blaster, quiet and a lot of flow for very little power consumption.
