What external pump is best

[holloway]

Please recommend a external pump to me. I want to replace 3 sedra 5000's. -2 run my filtration ,one runs my chiller. Together they run too hot and take up too much space in the sump. Please recommend a brand and size pump that will do the job and require little maintainence.

Check out the dolphin pumps. THey are low rpm so not much heat and they only draw like.9 amps which is nothing. They move tons of water.

An Iwaki 70RLT or 100RLT will do the job. Excellent pumps.
