hello everyone

ok so I need some help with choosing a return pump for my tank build, the tank is a 105 gal with a 40 breeder sump I am trying to do this tank on a lower budget seeing I have way too many hobbies already hahahaha... I don't wanna get something that's garbage but I don't wanna get something that's gonna brake the bank.

With this setup I plan on running a in tank return pump, I do not have the room or money for a in line bump unfortunately. I will be doing a lot of sps in the tank so I know I need higher flow in there, I'll have a few Lps Corals as well like frogspun, hammers, and a torch just love how I flow.
 
First. Bad piece of equipment to cheap cheap on. Especially with that tank size. Second you don't create flow with a return pump you have to use power heads.

With all that said look into jebao dc pump. 9000 should for your need.

I agree with everything this guy said.
 
If your still looking I have an eheim 1260 I used on my 90 gallon pump. It was very quite.

I have the Jebao DC 9000 on my setup. Works well, is quiet, and affordable. Can't speak to its longevity yet, but so far so good. I went with the Vectra M1 for my upgrade. Haven't gotten it wet yet, but it looks to be a solid pump out of the box.
