Default Pump questions (just a few)...

I am looking at watercooling my rig, and have just been given a neato idea for a res, that would be easily big enough to hold a pump, around RIO 800 size. This would save a heap of space, as I'm trying to do this in a fairly small midi case. (I'm not even coming close to other efforts, I know, but its my first attempt...)

Basically, what I want to know is if people think I should get a submersible or inline pump (an inline pump is a fair bit cheaper too - major consideration for me). I'm in Australia, and its VERY hard to find good stuff that is reasonably priced - for example, a Eheim 1250 is over AUD$170 (around 85 USD) whereas you can buy it for about 60 USD in US.

Brands I'm looking at are Rio, Eheim (if I win the lottery ), and Atman.

Also, any suggestions on pump rating? I'm looking at a Rio 800 or 1000, or an Eheim 1250. Atman also do an 800 and 1000 lph model (200 and 250 gph or thereabouts)

Thanks in advance...
