Hi,
I need help. My hubby and I are building a custom marine reef setup. I have help from a local fish guy. Tank is about 100 gal with a 20 g sump and 20 g refugium. custom overflow box and custom sumps... EVERYTHING IS CUSTOM.... Or at least homemade. My fish guy brought a catalina? pump. it says 1350gal per hour with a 4m head. we did a trial run and holy cow that's alot of water going through the system!!! Personally it looks like way too much water circulation. I will also have 2 750 powerheads and possibly 2 425 correlias.
My question is this... How big of a pump should I put in the sump?
Thanks
BTW We are pretty new to all this
