thanks all
I looked at a MSC supply book at work and got a Mityflex it is cheaper then the litermeter 3 by $190.
I got it today and it comes with differant size tubing and rollers to let pump how many ml/min you need.
it pumps a lot up to 29 feet.
I will never buy a sp-3000 again will only work with there tubing and $20 a tube.
