Im setting up a 125 with a 40 breeder sump. I have a question about the return pump I need. I seen a lot of people say you need 20x-30x turnover. And I start looking at forums with the best return pump topics and they have a pump that rated at 900gph for a 180 gal reef. I guess my main question is, is the turnover rate is that how many gph that goes through the sump, or is it the water movement in the display including power heads or anything the cause water movement? I just dont understand when they say 30x over on a 180 with a 900gph pump. The turnover would be 5? Thanks
