Container for Danner Mag Drive Model 3?

Kurik · 08-10-2001, 08:24 PM

What container do you all use for your Danner pumps? I figure I need a 5"x5"x5" box, yet I can't really find anything local. Suggestions?

Thanks

Edit: I want to submerse the pump inside of the container.

Almost all of us prefer inline systems without any resevoir. If you do choose to use a resevoir, I'd choose a smaller unit, and mount the pump outside it so the pumps heat is less likely to heat the water. Although a T-fitting and a section of hose will do nearly as well.

I second that danner pumps add quite a bit of heat to the water as it is, don't put it in tha water.

Most of the heat still enters the water anyway on an inline system, so its really an issue of convenience. If you can easily build a res, then go for it. If not then filling will be more annoying, but it will still perform about the same.

I went inline because building a res seemed like a PITA.
