I have 3 pumps on mine, one thru transom to fill-a pump out and a recirculator.

For the recirc I just mounted a standard 5oo pump in the tank and hooked it to a spray bar.

The pump out is the same as the thru transom but it comes in through the livewell wall and is on a double throw switch, down drains it up fills it, works pretty well.
