Fountain pump in saltwater?

[Feeshrfriendsnotfood]

So I saw a post here the other day, I think it was titled “over the edge”, it was a rimless nano tank where the whole edge was the overflow and would cascade down to the sump. Well I sell this neat plastic trifle dish and punch bowl at work (maybe half gallon total volume if even that) So a normal size return pump would be absolute overkill, but is there any reason a tabletop fountain pump wouldn’t work in saltwater?

If it's not saltwater rated, it will end up corroding and rusting - which would be very bad for your tank.

I thought as much. Anyone know a good pump for a Pico reef? Might just have to do it freshwater planted instead

I bought these in for 12 volt Power outages flow. I haven’t had a bit of problem with them except twice Astrina Stars jammed a pump, in a little over a year.
