I replaced the factory pump with a DC 3000 pump on the Vertex reactor. 9 ft of head max. It's a little bigger than I planned but it's flowing at half speed. Used a 1/2" pvc socket saver and blue pvc cement. Time to clean up the mess.

Running well. I run the pump on high and have the pH set to 6.24.
