So my dad took down one of his koi ponds and gave me the pump he used on it...Its a one year old sequence in great condition since the pump was indoors.

Well, i went on sequences site and it says it "can be modified for saltwater use". but doesnt list a kit or spare parts FOR saltwater use.

Here is a link to the pump i got:
http://www.h2ogardens.com/subcat40.html

Its the Sequence 3200SEQ20.

Does anyone know what usually has to be changed to make this saltwater safe? It will be used as a waterchanging pump so it wont be on 24/7, but when i have to make up some water i usually mix it for atleast 48 hours.

Any help is appreciated. TIA

Usually the seal on the wet end needs to be replaced with one rated for saltwater. If you don't, it will eventually (quickly) leak. :D
