pump size

[agreeive?fish]

I have a gravity feed fudge for my sea horse tank....turns out when i turned my pump on last night i did not have a large enough pump to push the water from the seahorse tank to the reverse fudge....the fudge is only for a preditor free production of pods for the seahorses and mandrin...

I need to push water up about six foot..flex piping is 3/8 id

i donot want a lot of flow as it is for a seahorses which has an eclips hood system with mechanical filtration and pump already


ANY sugestions of pump size

How many GPH are you looking for
Compared to what you have now?

Iam not real set on a certain gph..just enough flow to keep the water circulating thru the live rock( 20g tank for fudge) and to expot pods thru the hang on back overflow...but the return curent i would like to be no more than what would be about 1/2 of the recomended current flow for sea horses as not to tire them out..they are in a 29gal...
