Pan World 30PX

http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/pan-world-30px.html

I bought a Reef Concepts calcium reactor for 25 bucks. It looks like it has first class construction. The body is a 7 inch diameter and 18 inch tall vessel with plastic bolts that go into keyhole slots. Once I clean it up, I think that I have made a good buy.

Now I need to purchase a good pump. Looking around I find that Geo sells a Pan World 30PX with a unit about this size. On the cosmetic side, for some reason, I like the look of the bright yellow pump.

Is that a good unit for this size unit?

I could also go for a good used Japanese styled Iwaki Magnet Pump

Probably could go with the smallest PanWorld pump,. That's what I use on my ProCal and it works just fine (it's the Blueline 10 HD by PanWorld).
