I have 2 Mag Drive 12s and a ReeFlo Barracuda waiting on my build that you could use in a pinch. Not exactly what your after but may work. Mag Drives are submersible but the ReeFlo isn't.

I dont think I've ever seen a submersible pump that can do 6000gph. A mag 36 is about as big as they come. Do you mean 600gph?

Maybe a Laguna pond pump?

My question is: why would you want the run 6000 gph through your sump anyway? Most people shoot for 4-5 times tank volume per hour. Heck I only get about 3 times per hour and thats plenty. Your skimmer can only process so much water. The rest simply flows past.
