Nice!!!!
I like that ! tired of knocking my unit off the bucket .:twocents
I liked your idea so much I made this one today. I used a 12qt Igloo cube with a 500gph live well pump. I like the cube because it has a compartment in the lid.

You could wire in a timer switch, they don't cost much. I think the slowest mine runs is 30 seconds on, 5 minutes off.. which would be about perfect for minnows on a "nice" day. Hot days you can turn it up.
Did you get that as a kit, or did you just buy the parts needed to make it?Quote:

just started to piece a new one together here is the cooler i will use. it is a 17 quart igloo legend 24 holds 24 cans. the pump is a marine metals power bubbles air pump and a sea sense aerator. total cost $67 for pump and $20 for the cooler..
if that 17 quart cooler is not big enough i will use the 48 quart igloo marine series i got sitting around. see link for parts you guys think this one will work? you got me thinking is all i can say.. btw i will use flasher batteries to run the set up in parallel...there 12 volt each one and 9 amps total will be 12 volts and about 18 amps or i can use a deep cycle boat battery. i have a lil mate fishing cart this all fit in to shore fish with...
