You can also just buy a pump from a place like Grainger and build the unit yourself. The end cost was only 1/3 to 1/2 what you'd pay for a prebuilt system so it saved me many $$$. You can put the unit inside a simple wooden shed the size of a medium dog house. Just provide some plumbing and ventilation. If you look into catalogs like those available from Aquatic Ecosystems they have all the poop on how to size a pump and which pump type to choose. They have enough pictures of the equipment that you can see exactly what you need for all the plumbing.


Gotta get back to fishin!
