raw water wash down hose - honest mark - 05-12-2021

recently installed a more powerful raw water wash down pump, need it for fish blood n guts, want to go with a soft rubber garden hose 25ft, flexzilla makes a soft rubber hose but only in 5/8 inch, would rather use a 1/2 inch hose but they dont make it in 25ft, do you think 5/8 would be ok instead of 1/2 inch? dont really like those pre coiled plastic ones, anybody recomend a good hose that will still give me good water pressure?thank you

The pressure is created by the pump, not the hose. As long as you have a sprayer nozzle on the end of the hose it will still create the same pressure whether you use a 1/2 or 5/8 hose.
Now if you are just free flowing the hose, that's different.
