[dan.]

I'm looking for a cheap power head for 1 of those diy gravel vacs
Needs threaded fittings or hose barbs on both sides in half inch
Anyone know where to find one?

Search for Ecoplus pumps. They are inexpensive hydroponic/aquafarming pumps. They are awesome and inexpensive. Ive got some of their pumps. I've got 2 ecoplus 185 pumps that I've been running for 3 years with non issues

Its hard to tell from the picture, but the cover pops off and the inlet is female pipe thread, mine came with a plethora of male hose barbs from 3/8" all the way to 3/4"

They make them from like 70gph all the way to well over 1000gph

The ecoplus 185 and 396 are good choices.

I have not put it together yet but I do have all I need
Ordered an extra large siphon so I have the heavy duty long clear tube
Maybe next weekend I'll take the time to get it together and shoot a video
