I just purchased this Little Giant external pump for my salt mixing station. It was cheap on Facebook marketplace, brand new. Does anyone know if this is going to be reef safe?

I am attaching a link to the product.

Having used several Little Giant pumps in the past I would say yes.
They were a pretty common brand of pumps in the 80's-90's.
The specs on this one says use in harsh conditions, so again I would say it's good for your mixing station .

All of the materials (Ryton, FKM, ceramic shaft and washers) are compatible with salt water. It should be fine.
