Drew Mendez WTR Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hey y'all Im setting up a sump and need a utility pump...I'm thinking Max Head of 6ft at least its a 150 Gallon, the sump container is going to be 20-25 gallons.... Anyone having anything for sale or at the least the middle of the line... I've looked at Aquatraders Lowes in the Pond Section liveaquaria.com I dont think it would be cheaper at AquaDome... I have cash or paypal...I live in South Austin on Teri and I work in Round Rock 3-11pm so whatever works... Thanks I have a maxi jet 600 the max head is only like 3 and something feet...dont think that will work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+brian.srock Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I find the pumps at AutoTopoff.com much cheaper than lowes and such. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill B Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hi Andrew I have 2 ph 301's abd a ph 402 - these are both aquaclear power heads. I'm not sure of the head, but you might be able to find it. One of the 301's is obviously a little older - if it's appropriate for your use, you could have it. The other two just name your price, and I'm not talking a lot. Unfortunately my normal travels do not bring me very close to RR or SA. I am going to Metric and Braker tomorrow. Just a thought.
