Hello Iluvnyc. I'm not familiar with the type of pump you're inquiring about but hopefully one of our other members can help.
Have a good weekend!

I am not sure what you refer to as CO2 pump.

Most CO2 injection systems, including DIY, do not use any type of pump. That said there's a couple of entry level CO2 device that does use a standard airpump (e.g. Sanders Floramat Aerosol CO2 System can be set for with or without airpump use).

I use a (30 minutes before) lights-off pump-on/ (30 minutes after) lights-on/pump-off set up where a simple timer turns on an airpump for extra aeration while CO2 is injected at night.
