I found this while trying to figure out my exact flow turnover rate. After reading I've discovered that my flow turnover rate is around 60x without my sump return working. If I were to fix my sump, my flow turnover rate would be around 73x. Is that a bit overkill? Should I live without my sump? I tested earlier this week and with my PWC schedule and daily feedings I'm still 0 on ammonia, 0 nitrites, 0 nitrates.
