alright i pick up an ASM G3 w/Sedra 9000 from rmougey today and the pipe for the pump to skimmer was gone. it was a good thing tho because with the pump it wouldnt fit in to my fuge. so now to my question can i run the Sedra 9000 as an external pump because it wont fit in the section of my fuge?

thanks for any help

Like a remote pump? If so, shouldn't be an issue imo but not 100% sure. I don't think you could use it as an external though, it has or should have a volute and I'm not sure you could get it to seal. Also the g3 should have a sedra 3500 from factory

its just a skimmer pump thats about all i know about it. so lets say i pipe to the pump and a return from the pump and just put the pump in a bucket of water still on the outside of the fuge?
