Transfer pump

Bryan68 · Jan 11, 2020

I need a pump to drop into a brute trashcan to pump new saltwater from the can to the tank during water changes. Does anyone have any suggestions? I will be pumping about 25 gallons with a head height of about 6 feet. Thanks!

A Sicce Syncra 2 should work pretty well.

I have a 32 gallon Brute and make 25 gallons as well. I've been using a MAG 9.5 for years.

These work awesome! Also can mix the saltwater for you as it pulls from the very bottom!

I do the same thing with my brute can. I got one if these cheaper pumps off amazon and it works great! It has different fittings for different size tubing...i use 1/2" tubing. I think it was around $26...880gph.
