DC6000 or 9000

I am looking at replacing my pump and was wondering what y'all recommend? I do plan on running my skimmer and media reactors off of it.

What size tank?

Sorry about that. It is a 65 gal with 20 gal sump

Personally, if it were me, I'd go with at least the 9000 and possibly with a 12000. They can be cut back to 10% of their output volume so why not to with the biggest one.

The dc pumps work great so far I really do like them but they don't have much had pressure, I would go with the 9000 cause you will have the power available if you need it and don't have to run it 100% percent if you don't need the power.
Lots of room for add on's.

I've got a 9000 running on a single overflow 75, I run it on the lowest setting and it's plenty. You don't really need a lot of flow through your sump but the extra gph would be handy if you want to run some reactors off the return.

Jebao does not make the DC9000 anymore but they make the DCT8000 to replace it
