big stu Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 hey i wanted to know what size pump i should use to do water changes i onlt have 4 tanks if that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colfish Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 i use an old 3000lph. so it probably does'nt push that volume now. i move 200 lts at each water change. but i spose it comes back to how fast you want to get it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomany...way too many Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I use a 1500 lph and find that this is suitable although could go to 2000 to get it done quicker, I did use 3500lph pump and it was way to strong. nearly blew the Tank all over the shop!

CThompson Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 the smaller the pump the longer the water change takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzFish Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 the smaller the pump the longer the water change takes. got to agree with that, i use a 5500ltr and it does the job nice and quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
