I am gonna get a deep blue Triton water pump and am wondering if I should get the 4 or 5? I need to be able to pump water to the tank via 75 feet of vinyl tubing. (The aging bin is downstairs and the tank is upstairs)

The 4 is like 950 gph I think and the 5 is 1250 gph.

Get the 5. You will need all the head pressure you can get.

Go for the 5. I'm not sure if my calculations are right, but the 5 at 1250 gph should take you about 16 minutes to fill up your tank from 75 feet away?

+1 Want a ton of pressure.

If I find a spot for the aging barrel upstairs....lets day about 4-5 feet away from the tank will the 5 be too much pressure?

Nope, you will just move the water a little faster.
