I need a quick response

Ok, I just emailed my mom and told her to order me a Eheim 1250 Pump. Was this a good selection and do i need a reservoir, or does my pump act as one?

[xCarne_Asada]

most of all DO I NEED A RESERVOIR, IF I HAVE A EHEIM PUMP?

It doesn't look like it has a reservior built into it...

ok so what is a good pump/reservoir combo or something cheap like that, but its still good.

[Krusty]

not a clue here. I'll be looking into water cooling around january or so. i think im gonna go with a blackice extreme radiator. tahts all ive concluded as of now. any recommendations on a pump? im sure i can build my own reservoir.

[xCarne_Asada]

say i got the eheim like I planned, how/where can i get a reservoir to go with this thing?

[Krusty]

I'd build one. im sure I could find a way to fuse lexan to be water tight or something. or just use pvc like other people. all a reservior is is a little sealed bucked with an in hole and an out hole.

i am sitting here and ideas keep coming in and out, should I have the pump internal or external?

I kinda like the external idea. Why would one want the internal pump? does it boost performance or anything? I would think the system would be easier to troubleshoot being external.

OMG best news ever, I asked my dad if i should build my reservoir interal or external, he said I dont care, probably external. BONG COOLER! (hmm harded to transport to lan parties though)
