Hobie Bait Tank 6Volt Battery Question - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

The 500GPH pump running on 12 volt would be great if your tank was 15-20 gallons, not sure why you think the tank needs more flow, also I'd recommend using marine grade stainless wire, not copper. What exactly do you find to be "lame"? The run time? the amount of water flowing?

That pump running on 12 vdc KILLS our BAIT. Running on 6 vdc the bait is fine and the pump lasts twice as long.
