Looks good.
You know, I never even thought of that! I was so consumed by the onboard thoughts that I got tunnel vision (Unusual for a person with ADD). The pump directions mention the pump should be mounted at or below the tank "For best results" so I never even gave the suction thing a thought. I will now have to reconsider the thought and give that a try. It is self priming so it might very well work.

If not I might have to go to a 1/2 horse shallow well pump...

Thanks Fly Rod!!!
