Was doing some reading in a aquarium thread FAQ. Apparently this pump is desinged to sustain high pressure in conditions where flow is restricted.

So, where all these other pumps out there lose their GPH when actually put into a system, this one should actually be able to pump close to spec even going through all the 3/8" line in a W/C system. Even nicer is the little dial control that let's you set the actual flow rate.

Any thoughts?

Hydrothrustor QV System 500 uses a quiet, magnetic concentric drive motor to pump water efficiently at high volumes. The pump, with its 9-10 PSI capability, is designed to gain speed as head pressure increases. It will continue to push water through the filter elements as they become clogged. 1.6 amp., 500 g.p.h. variable flow.
