Sedra 3500 on a g-1?

Anyone ever try this? I am worried about micro bubble issues. Thanks in advance.

I run a G3 with a PSK2500 recirculating and a GenX 1500 NW and venturi as a feed pump. I have maxed out the air capacity the body of the G3 will accept. I have no microbubble issues. Both pumps inject air.

I think you will be fine with a 3500 on that body.

I am just worried about the pump being stronger, not giving the bubbles a chance to rise up the neck, and flowing out of the riser tube.

Thanks for the input.

It's an ASM, you're going to get bubbles....just make sure to have some good bubble traps in place.
