Agitation pump below tank?

So apparently, you need a gravity feed for an agitation pump to work ???

I was hoping to run pipes over and into the bath. After looking at sswee’s pics of his 20 gal setup, seems you need to bore two holes in your bath container, seal and pipe them, and connect them to pump below the bath so the pipes naturally flood. Only then can torque of a Little Giant motor successfully move the electrolyte. Now I feel stupid that I thought it could flood itself in any position. :eyes

Is this true? This will mean a lot of teflon tape/pipe sealant and yet another trip to the local hardware, which is notoriously ill-stocked for anything more complicated than hanging a picture.
