WOW....thanks guys...After thinking about this for a day i think im going to recomened that he come up with a differant kind of pump that either floats or is made to be totally submerged.He bought this at a plumbing house and they told him it could be totatly submerged.I disagree.There has got to be something out there made just for this function and i think ill put the gfci in for him and let him shop for it.
