Needlewheel pump as feed pump

[dachkie]

I'm tinkering with the idea of using a needlewheel pump to feed my re-circulating skimmer so that means more chop up bubbles for maybe better performance?

anybody already tried this method? need feedback before i invest into a needlewheel pump,

and anyway other then aquabee NW pump, what other cheaper options are there for NW pumps? low heat output is my main concern.

i am currently using gravity feed, just toying with the idea of using a nw pump for even more foam production, skim the hell out of the tank lol
