I have a 55 gallon tank and have a Aqua Clear 70 filter system. How large of a pump do I need to use on this item?

I use a 10 gallon pump with this. I don't think the tank or filter matters.

You will need a much bigger pump than this one I have a three hundred gallon tank for fish and this unit can barely keep enough oxygen in it for my fish. Four feet deep and can hardly put any bubbles out of the stone. Wayne

Considering you have a 40gal tank, i wouldnt recommend this for you. Also, why drain it continuously? This pump is for a 70gal tank.

I am using a 5000 gpm pump and the system works very well. Hope this helps.

I have a 13500 gal pool and a 1.5 hp pimp. I place the c751 in line with my 60sq ft DE filter and the cartridge filter does great. I should have done this a long time ago.

Yes you can use that size pump on your pool as long as the filter you have is a 150sq ft cartridge filter or a 22" sand filter. the pump must also be sized properly for the filter you have.

That wattage will be sufficient for your aquarium. 200 to250 handles a 55 gallon salt water tank easily.

You will need pump, tubing and gravel. I also use a power filter with mine. Good Luck!

Yes, You Will need a pump, You need a pump at least ten times your tank size, if your tank is 50 gallons you need 500 GPH pump

I've used an loved this kit for my koi pond an it holds 500 gallon. I purchased a large pump an it's worked really good.

I think that is how big my fish pond is and it works great. The only other recommendation I would have is to get a filter box for the pump so doesn't get stopped up with debris.

The 92 gallon may be a little too much for the 20 gallon tank, but it can absolutely be used in the 55 gallon. I use mine with a 39 gallon without issues for well over a year. These are great filters.

Sorry also by the way for your 120 gallon tank depends what your keeping. How much flow you want??? 2 jebao 40s or 60s if you want a tsunami. ..these pumps are strong man...

This is system is an all in one. It has the filter pump attached to the saltwater system. Yes this pump will be big enough for ur pool. Ours Is a 20x4ft and it works perfectly on ours

It should be ok..that filter is up to 40g.... That thing should keep your tank pretty clean. Plus you can adjust the flow so your not creating a whirlpool inside the small tank. IMO I'd upgrade to at least a 20 or 30 gallon... Hope I helped!!

You need airline tubing and a airpump appropriate for your tanks size. Slip the airline tubing over the clear tube at the top (you may need a larger size tubing which is sold at petsmart). Suction it down and turn on your pump. Each time you clean your tank you should squeeze the sponge to clear it out.
