Return Pump Question

[chinatown]

I'm in the middle of setting up a 57g with a 20g sump. What would be a good return pump for this setup?

Love my Eheim 1250 for my 40 breeder and 20ish gallon sump. Bit pricey but best return pump I have owned.

Do you want internal or external?

internal pump. i was looking at the eheim 1260 or 1262. Maybe a Mag 7? What you guys think about those choices? Gonna have a mp20 and mp10 in the display so flow shouldn't be a big concern and will probably Tee off to a reactor too.

+1 for pricey eheim, but well worth it

Thanks! Yea, it's where it T's off to 3 ball valve and on each valve, theres a little white adapter that connects to his reactor.

+1 on the 1262 for reliable submersible pump. It's rated for 900 or so gph at 0' head so after all the restrictions and tee off, you'll probably get about 500 gph back into the tank.
