two way submersible pump for waterfall

Hey everybody,

I need some help finding a decent pump to use as a two way pump from a res bucket to main buckets. I got one of those green vivosun pumps but it seems that it can't be used on both ends, maybe it can and I am looking at it incorrectly? (Pump that I don't think can be used as two way but I could be wrong). Doesn't need to be too powerful but the one that I had began making a loud grinding noise and waterflow was down to a trickle (Old pump that broke)

TLDR: Need a recommendation for reliable two way air pump for rdwc waterfall, the one I had quit after a week.

Let me know please

Just wondering why u require 2 way , can’t you submerse it? I’m not sure what your set up looks like just wondering if u can make it work with that pump

Yes needs to be two way to connect the res to main bucket sites. Here is my setup

The pipe going left from the top of the pump is that to the reservoir ? ya well only other way is to have the pump submersed in the Rez and then one pipe feeding buckets but I don’t think u can reverse that with out changing too much

im with Rdubz, why cant' you just put that pump in the res and re-do your line to come out the top?
