I am looking for two pump recommendations.
1. From sump as return back to tank. I am looking for roughly 1000-1200 gph through the sump then to be pumped up about 5 ft to the tank, minimal elbows, etc. Quiet is very important as is low power consumption. Sump is under the stand in my family room where we watch TV. Stamd will also house a closed loop pump, probably a Sequence, and a Euroreef skimmer.
2. Second pump will be in the basement pumping water through a chiller then about 12 ft back up to the tank. Dedicated solely to the chiller with a 1 inch or 1.5 inch drain from the tank directly to the pump. Noise is less important because it's in the basement, but power consumption is still important. (I live in NE and electricity is about .12 per kwh)
I had been thinking about a Velocity but am concerned about CSL going out of business. Also considered Bluelines or Iwaki's.
Suggestions.........
