I'm looking into building my own water cooling system and looking where I could find a water pump (at least 200gph) for cheap. Any suggestions?

Besides Ehiem, I see a lot of people using the Maxijets or the Via Aqua, but I don't know how much they go for.

Don't get too hung up on the Cheap Water Pump idea.
The cheapest waterpump is the one that doesn't blow up while
you are away. Go with the Eheim 1048 or if you are a
Niagra Falls kind of guy, the Eheim 1250.

Ah yes, I know of a very cheap (almost free) one. Not 200gph, though, and you need some free time and knowledge of acrylics.
