No, it doesn't!

It looks like a "News Group Bridge", where a particularly ugly, nasty
and vile lives beneath ... and if you call out, "Ex-pathetic-ignoramus,

Wow! I'm impressed!
Could you upload some photos of your pool-sized reef tank and post a
link here?

pics of my reef tanks some of which are definitely pool size are at
http://myspace.com/tkiergen in my tanks at the house gallery.
 It is not uncommon for people with real actual incomes to be running large
tanks or as in my case systems totalling well over the 2000 gallon average
Florida home pool size.
  To the original author of the question....yes you can mount your pump
above the waterline - put a backflow preventer at the intake side and make a
"U" with pvc at the pump IE: if looking at your pump....it will have pipes
sticking up to create a mini field goal with your pump being the support.
this will enable you to have a bit of water in the pump should the electric
fail - helps it re-prime and remember in a reef system NEVER count on a
backflow preventer to be a sole solution as they gather coralline algea and
such and will allow backflow after only a few months.

I do not think the OP has a f.cking fish tank or pond dude, he has a
$109.99 Wally World inflatble wall swimming pool......duh!  So most
Flordia homes have a "2000" gal pool, huh, well thats stil lin the
same catagory as Wally Worlds Plastic inflatable side swimming pools
still with a price of about $169.00........Seems I recal most are at
least a minimum of 10K to  be even considered as a  pool unless you
tack on the WADING description in front of the name POOL............I
bet those plittle plastci fishes and turtles oyour 2000 gal; wading
pool  looks great with the coral beauty etc............do yo have any
plastic sharks and do yo uplay with your GI Joe dolls in the 2000 gal
wading pool as well?
damn hippie - 06 Oct 2008 00:34 GMT
did http://myspace.com/tkiergen - that is the link - hit in the pics then go
to tanks at the house or the bio pond gallery - I am going to be putting up
pics of the pool at the Englewood house in the near future as well - it is
60ft x 22ft with an average depth of 3.5 feet. Also trying to get with
Mogford so I can get pics of the one I did there - it was the model for mine
at the house in Englewood.
  Just for reference the largest tank at the Venice house is 1100 gallons
with the pond being 2700 total gallons currently online in that system =
5900 - have added more since the pics I have up

Your one clueless moron dude!

Yes you are a clueless moron - had you looked at the pics you would have
noticed other galleries as well - I am one of the founders with Gulf Coast
Crustacean Research.
   Further were you not a complete idiot you would be aware that the person
originally posing the question is not necessarily attempting a pool pump for
size of tank but rather for the amount of flow need to raise corals. A pool
pump in a regular pool would not provide enough flow for more than a few
species of softies and very few stonies that can tolerate low flow.
  In using an oversized pump one can create flow to sustain one or (in my
case more) several tanks rather than having dozens of pumps to do the same
job.
   So congrats - you are a complete idiot - you have taken a simple
question, turned off the original asker, insulted someone who gave an honest
and hopefully helpful answer. Major accomplishment there - troll.

Sincerely
Professor Todd Mikhail Kiergen
