What size pump for autofeed

[FlowerPower88]

I am using a 4 site Floraflex matrix irrigation setup for 3 gallon pots in coco, with a 10 gallon reservoir, Floraflex recommended a Leader 230

I am assuming there must be a cheaper but still quality alternative, seeing as that model is $300+

Thank you! I was about to say…A $300 pump for a 10 gallon res in a 4 site setup seems awful steep lol
