I've always wondered about this but was always affraid to ask
What's the relationship between GPH and tank size?
This question popped in my mind because I've been looking for a small filter for my 5.5g aquarium.
I've been looking at filters that are supposebly designed for aquariums UP TO 3 gallons. However, tech specs say they pump 20gph.
Wouldn't they be plenty adequate for a 5.5g?
Is there a rule for calculating appropriate gph rating?
