Pump for RSM C-250 Chiller

WarEaglesReef · Sep 8, 2017

In need of some assistance and hoping someone who's found a setup that works can help me out! I got a chiller for my RedSea Max C-250 but when I picked up a pump with the appropriate flow rate, it was way too big for the back compartment where RedSea says the pump is supposed to go. Does anyone have a chiller pump on this tank that fits in that tiny back compartment and provides enough flow? Currently the pump I've got has to sit in the tank which keeps me from closing the lid all the way.

This is the pump that I used for my chiller and it fits perfectly and has a good flow rate and I also have a red sea max c 250

Thanks for the recommendation @kurtsnape! Pump came today and after a bit of elbow grease it fits perfect down in the bottom of that chamber. So nice to finally be able to completely close the lid on my tank!
