Liberty Sump Pump 257: 1/3 hp 115V 5.2 amps 60Hz 50 GPM

A nice Craig's List find and a critical piece for my fishyard transfer system:
Liberty Sump Pump 257: 1/3 hp 115V 5.2 amps 60Hz, 
50 GPM @ 0 and 40 GPM@ 8 Feet.  
American Made!  
Here's a video the seller posted.  Can't wait to drain a 300 gallon tank and relocate the water in 6 or 7 minutes!
He shipped it from a few hours drive away for $13.  

Hardly any run time.  Can't wait to draina 300 gallon tank and relocate the water in 6 or 7 minutes!
