Mixing saltwater

[Mikeyp1055]

I'm ready to build my saltwater mixing station. For starters I just want to mix in the barrel and pump it out with a maxi jet or some other pump like that. My end goal is to plumb both barrels together and have an external pump set up to mix the salt that way. My question is what size pump with I need for both situations or should I just save up for an iwaki pump at like 500gph?

I would go with something like a mag 5,6,7,8 whatever. Great little pump can be ran inline. I have been using mag 9.5 for the past two years no problem. Used when I got it too. Had to replace and impeller once. I have been wanting to make a mixing station for a while now thinking about doing it this summer. Let me know how it comes out.
