Hello everyone! My name is Ricardo and i have a question for you all. How quickly should your systems turn over rate be when you are using a sump on your aquarium? I am currently volunteering at The Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach California as an aquarist and i have noticed that almost all tanks have a very low turn over rate. I have heard the rule of 10x an hour but a tank i work on at the aquarium has a turn over rate of 3 times an hour! So my question to you is which is better, a higher rate or lower rate? Please let me know your opinions all input is greatly appreciated! I hope this thread starts a great convo!
