Best pump choice?

I am confused that pump is not 3000- 6000 gph that you said you needed.
 
Flow rate is not super important for me becaise i recalculated. Im looking at 2000 gph and up. Im thinking the pump im using now is pushing only 1500gph due to head height. So my rating is lower now.

My main concern is no chance of electricity in the water.
 
IMO if I didn’t want to spend the money on an Iwaki I would look into Fluval SP4 or 6. Askoll motor blocks, great pumps.

I might even consider a Varios 8 but I don’t know if I’d want to jump into DC for a return pump quite yet.
