Active Aqua Submersible Water Pump, 800 GPH

Reliable Circulation for 80-Gallon Reservoirs

A reservoir only stays healthy if the solution inside it keeps moving — a pump that's underpowered, leaky, or noisy turns a simple circulation task into a daily annoyance.

The Active Aqua Submersible Water Pump moves 800 gallons per hour at 58 watts, sized to keep a roughly 80-gallon reservoir circulating evenly without straining the motor or running up your power bill.

Its mag-drive design and ceramic shaft built for saltwater-safe operation mean it runs quietly below the waterline for the long haul, while the removable foam filter and rubber feet keep debris out and vibration down.

Key Features & Benefits

• 800 GPH output — matches 80-gallon reservoirs, giving the system enough flow to keep nutrient solution circulating on schedule.
• 58W mag-drive motor — runs efficiently below the waterline without the oil or seals that ordinary pumps depend on.
• Ceramic shaft built for saltwater-safe operation — is built for the demands of this flow range and rated for indoor and outdoor use.
• Removable foam filter and rubber feet — keep debris out of the impeller and cut down on vibration and noise during long runs.
• 10-foot heavy-duty power cord — gives you the reach to place the pump exactly where the reservoir sits without an extension cord.
• Multiple hose fitting sizes included — so the pump connects to your existing tubing without a trip back to the store for adapters.

Who Should Use the 800 GPH Submersible Pump

This pump suits hydroponic growers running roughly 80-gallon reservoirs who want dependable, quiet circulation, as well as anyone setting up aquariums, ponds, fountains, or other water features that call for a similarly sized submersible pump.

Matching Pump Output to Your Reservoir

Pumps in the Active Aqua submersible line range from compact 40 GPH units to large 1,100 GPH models, each sized to a particular reservoir range — this 800 GPH pump is matched to roughly 80-gallon setups. Going too small leaves solution stagnant in corners of the reservoir; going too large wastes power and can over-agitate delicate root systems, so matching GPH to reservoir size keeps the whole system running smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size reservoir is this pump suited for?

At 800 GPH, it's sized for reservoirs around 80 gallons, giving the solution enough turnover to stay evenly mixed and oxygenated.

Is this pump safe for saltwater or aquaponic setups?

Yes — it uses a ceramic shaft, and like the rest of the Active Aqua submersible line it's BPA-free and safe for aquaponic use.

How is the pump installed and positioned?

It runs fully submerged below the waterline, secured by rubber mounting feet that reduce vibration, and connects through multiple included hose fittings for an exact tubing match.

How long is the power cord?

It ships with a 10-foot heavy-duty power cord, giving you the reach to route power to an outlet without crowding the reservoir setup.

How do I keep the pump running smoothly over time?

Rinse the removable foam filter regularly to keep debris away from the impeller, and keep an Active Aqua replacement impeller on hand so a worn part never stalls your circulation.
