Title says it all. I’m rigging an automated water change system. What I’m looking for is a pump to run water from my mixing station to my tank, about 35 feet. It would need to be a non submersible pump.

Does anyone know where I can get one that’s saltwater safe? And for anyone that’s already doing this, what type of hose are you using. I know I can’t use a standard garden hose.
 
I have a pan-world 250 and I believe it’s rated for 1500+ gallons.
I used to have hard plumbed but you can also use 3/4” flex pipe.
