External drive pumps I need something SMALL

[stdreb27]

I'm looking for a pump for my setup, I would like something that will push around 1000 gph. The problem is that I only have 10 inches between the end of my sump and and the wall. If I have an iwaki now, but with the 90 degree corner but it is cavitating and that is my problem.

Problem is that most external pumps have cooling fans which makes them longer. I have 2 PS3s that are very small and run silent but they cool internally so they will raise your water temp by 3 or 4 degrees. If you have a chiller like I do then its not an issue but if not then you have to figure out how to cool the tank.

Are these the same guys that make the Velocity T series pumps? What is silly is that I just sold my velocity pump and that would have fit!

What about a MAG drive?

What is the ID thread of a mag 9.5 or mag 12?

The T4 should fit. You can run a Mag 9.5 or an Eheim 1262 externally as well.
