I have a single 3/8" loop system for my CPU and I was finding that my Ehiem 1048 pump was a little underpowered so I added an old thermaltake 500 in series. I placed it before the other pump so it goes:
-> TT500 - Eheim - CPU - rad - res -TT500 ->
Either pump by itself is crappy but together they seem to do a really good job. One for volume and one for pressure with redundancy for safety. I know I am not the only one to do this, but with two unequal pumps, would you think having two pumps A (a low pressure high volume pump) and B (low volume, higher pressure) be better, worse or no change if you swapped places?
(I am thinking no change but I wanted to hear other opinions)
