Thanks psycho. I would never have thought to make the reservoir larger to keep the temperature cooler. Good thought. I'm thinking about summer time grows when the temps start climbing. I'll probably have to battle the surrounding air temperature more than the pump. The pump is small 130 gph. There is no noise except the sound of the water falling back into the reservoir. How noisy are the external pumps? What is a baffle?
Gen Reviewed by Gen on . pump temperature vs noise Can someone tell me if it's better to have the pump submersed in the reservoir or have an external pump? I thinking about the effect the heat from the pump would have on water temperature vs the noise the external pump would make. Anyone try this? Rating: 5
