I am looking for a strong pump that can easily pull water out of the typical 5g jug for water changes. I use a siphon to pull the water out of my tank. However I would like to make it easier on myself and have a pump for the new water. Any ideas?

Criteria:
Needs to be able to pull water from the standard 5g jug with 2.5” opening
Needs to be able to lift water 5’ from the floor.
