There are lots of pumps that will work, but you first need to figure out what kind of flow requirements you want.

What size is the tank? How far of a run do you plan on running with the pipe? Will there be a chiller/uv/canister filter attached in the basement? Open and closed system, or just an open?

sorry i didn't put all the info in the question first time.
75 gal tank. sump will be directly under tank but in the basement.
it will be about 12 to 13 feet from sump to the top of the tank. no chiller
for simplicity i would prefer to use a submersible pump if possible. what is the curent recommendation for tank turnover?...10x would be 750gph.
is there a submersible pump that can flow that rate up 13 feet? thanks
