<p>I use a Lifeguard Products, Quite One pump which has pumped some 8500 hours with off and on phases in the 52,000 range during that period. No problems. Pump curves showing volume at various heights are available for these pumps. You could consider selecting selecting a pump with capacity a bit in excess of your needs so that you can divert some water for extra aeration, or not. Quiet One pumps are very economical to operate with respect to power draw. </p>

<p>Also, Eco 264 sounds about right.</p>

<p>I have a 475gph statuary filterless pump from Tetra, it is good up to 5ft verticle, claims 7 but was pretty weak unless you reduce the feed line to 1/2". The run about $40-$50</p>
