I can hear my current pump hiccuping so I've decided to upgrade my petsmart pump to a nice eheim. though i thought it would be nice if i could get some feedback as to what an ideal gph would be for my setup. i am using a Maze 3, hayden rad and a large reservoir (submerged pump), all hooked up with 3/8" ID tygon. im idling around 8-9C over ambient and about 15C over on load.
There will probably be quite a bit of lift in my tower (addtronics 7896) as i plan on putting the pump above my power supply and my rad is in the front-bottom of the case where two 120 mm holes are punched. anyways i dont think i forgot anything, heres a pic of my $20 pump, no laughing
btw, interesting gph statistic for the 1250 on the
eheim page
