I have a 37 tall tank. I need to figure out what size return pump I need, and what size pump would be best for a 10 gal refugium.
Return head = 6 feet max
Refugium head = 3 feet max
Is a mag drive 9.5 too big for the return pump?
is a mag drive 5 too big for the refugium?
I'm willing to install ball valves on the intake and return line on the display tank return pump. I'm also willing to put a ball valve on the exhaust line going to the refugium.
I'm going to split the return line going to the display tank w/ a y-joint.
Here are the prices of the pumps:
Mag 3 - $65
Mag 5 - $59
Mag 7 - $63
Mag 9.5 - $79
Mag 12 - $110
I'm going to buy the pumps soon, so any advise will be very helpful.
