sorry about the title LOL
I have just set up a 210g SW tank with a 50g sump. I would like to shut the pump off during feeding but it thumps like crazy for a fair amount of time as soon as I unplug it. My sump tank has double lined walls but I still worry it will break it and it has to scare the fish. It's a submersible pondmaster 2400 or some such name. I felt that adding more rather than less pump than required would be better but it causes an amazing current. Have I connected something incorrectly or should I have the nozzle in the tank pointed any special way?
