I have been using some of the ceramic bearing 2 or 3 phase brushless pumps with good luck. They are suppose to have a pretty long service life and are efficient.

I buy the 24v rated and run them at 12v

High flow and high pumping height;

Lower flow and lower pumping height;

You want to mount them with the shaft at a horizontal orientation for longest life. I blew up an external controller due to an incident of water running backwards in the pump at a high elevation and was able to replace it with an cheap ebay controller very easily.
