is the 60 gallon pump good enough for a 55 gallon 20 inches tall?

It should be but i am always in the mind of oversized airpumps if you can afford them. Never hurts to be slightly larger

I don't see that info on the box. What I can tell you is I have this for my 120 gallon tank that is about 4 feet wide, 2 feet from front to back and about 40 inches deep. The pump sits about 2 feet below the tank and is strong enough to make two 4 inch bubble disks look like two huge columns of air. It is also exceptionally quiet. Hope this helps.

I have a 100 gal tank and it works great for me. The pump is great. With any of these pumps if you have to high of demand it's not the pumps fault if it can't keep up. I would purchase another if I needed one tomorrow. It's a good pump.

I've only used this pump once so far, but the reviews say not quite 30". Maybe consider the 15500.

The simple answer is yes. I think you will find this pump will suit your needs quite well.

I am not sure. If I am correct in assuming the numbers 15 and 20 represent the vertical feet these two pumps can lift the liquid, and you need more than 15 feet to lift your fluid, then the 15 model is not adequate for your needs.

No I don't believe so. I have a 35 gallon bow front and it fit perfectly, so it would be to small for a 55 gallon.

hard to say... it's pretty tall...over a foot I would say. have in a 60 gallon so I'd recommend measuring first

This pump is no joke - it produces a strong current in my 75gal tank. Might be a little overpowered for a 55.

I don't know exactly how high it will pump but mine goes up roughly 5 feet without any problems what-so-ever. If you do purchase it, make sure you install the check valve, otherwise the pump will be constantly underwater which will shorten the life of the pump considerably.

No it will not. 75 gallon or 90 gallon. You need 48 inch x 13 inch for a 55 gallon

At least dbl the opening size at min. A few extra inches always helps. But no larger than 60".

Yes, I think it's perfect for that size. I have a 24" deep tank (90 Gal), and it's perfect.

I have this pump and filter on a 24'x54" above ground and it is more than capable. I love it and I don't think you will go wrong with this set up.

20 feet should not be a problem we possibly have a 30 feet right now and I have no issues with it the pump works great

I tested mine and it will pump vertically for at least 6 feet without a problem.

William,A 1/2 hp submersible pump should handle 60 psi with no trouble. I have an above ground pump with a deep well (bottom of well) jet that pumps 70 psi. I believe your submersible should do even better. Dan
