Filter Pump for Bright Acid Copper

Filter Pump for Bright Acid Copper

So I have tried two different pumps for my copper plating setup:

  1. Caswell "filter" pump. Didn't even put it in the bath as it does not have the filter and says right on the box not to use with acid which this set up is. Extremely disappointed in Caswell for this and support has not even replied to my email.

  2. Aquarium Pump off of Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TWD1P7X?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 - Failed after one week of use, not sure why just wont run anymore

I have a 3 gal tank setup and was planning on using a filter pump as I have seen mentioned on numerous posts but I must not be getting the right one. Anyone have any suggestions?
