Re: [GSAS-Member] Move the Water

Shango et al,

They are rated by GPH.  I don't still have the box, so I can't tell you the
size.  I used the smallest because it was for a 20 gallon tank.  The pumps
are rated for tank size, so if you are using one, the choices are simple
although a "high tank" may confuse issues.  If you just want to move water
in a specific portion of 35 gallon tank I would stick with the smallest one.
I am hoping to setup a much larger tank for natives.  I will be discussing
it's setup with experts at the NANFA convention at the end of September:

http://www.nanfa.org/convention/2008.shtml

I suspect I will be using different pumps (possibly 3) at different levels
to match natural conditions in nature.

Tom

Thanks Laurel and Tom.

I really like this Hydor Koralia pump.  Tom, what size would you suggest for
a 35 Tall Tank?

Thanks
Shango
