i am trying to set up a small aqaurium (about 25 gallons) and i am looking for a water pump that will flow water through the aquarium for a period of time and then shut off, and do that like every hour or so. is there such a thing? a water pump with a built in timer so its not running constanly but only every so often? it doesnt need to move alot of water, but i only want it to pump maybe once every hour. thanks for the help

a timer works but consider using a bottom filter and use air your fish will be happier and the tank will smell less you still need a timer to shut the system on and off

You can buy a timer that will plug into an electrical receptacle and carry the pump current. I would check with an aquarium store, or a lighting store
