dont mind provide pics and specifications bro ?

hi, pics would take some time as i m out. what i can tell u off hand is - its 2ft tall, base about 8 inches, works on the down-draught method. the bubbles are plentiful n beautiful. it nice n clean, n no leaks, no cracks

the Rio pump is about 6000lph, suppose to be energy efficient, Taiwan made, can be connected outside sump or external

Rio pumps can be external? I read the manual says it must be fully submerged before switch on. Can clarify?

i have noticed some shops using these as external pumps n some hobbyist use it external too. i checked the www too n it seems that it states submerge pump. the instructions in the box is otherwise, it say can use external also, but never let run dry. so i guess these guys have done it n no problem. this is mainly to minimise heat
