Im looking to buy a powerful in sump return pump for my 180gal build. The pump I currently have may not be strong enough to handle the dual overflows alone so either looking to replace it or suppliment it. Not looking to spend a fortune but not looking for a hand out either.

I have a mag 18 on my 120. I'd like to go a bit smaller. Let me know if that'd work for you and we can talk price if you are interested.

The overflows will only drain as much water as being pumped up, unless you have something forcing the water down.

I think I worded it worng. The pump I have wont turn the water over fast enough to provide adequate filtration.

Thats what Im thinking, The one i currently have is 1800 gph, which has been great for the 90 gallon, but I have this little feeling if I try to use just the one on the 180 Im going to have problems so I might as well plump the damn thinkg for 2 pumps while its easy.
