need a pump to run a teco ra680 pump, anyone know what size pump i should use, i think it calls for 400 litres hr pump,

That is only about 105 gph. However, the coils might be restrictive, so you might want to see what the old pump was rated at and match it as close as possible. Or oversize the pump, and use a valve to dial it back.
