What is the most energy efficient pumps out there? I'm in the process of setting up a 120 and I want to get a return pump for my sump that isnt going to kill my electricty bill.

I'm definitly going to have to change my whole design becuase I just calculated what my electricty bill was going to be, yikes!

Why such a high GPH? A 120G needs maybe 250 - 600GPH.
