Pump Flow rate


Recommended Posts

I think you need to provide additional details about your set up to get advice regarding flow rate. For example, are referring to only return pumps or powerheads. Do you use a sump? What are you planning to keep in your tank? (FOWRL, soft coral, sps, etc.)

Recommended flow rate for an arctica 1/5 is between 480 gph and 1320 gph.

Here's a link to the manual:

Within the range that bro brent has reflected. Also if possible, to narrow the search, try to equalize your skimmer pump rate and return pump rate after taking into account head loss. I would recommend tesino btw due to its silent operation and low wattage.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes

Too many people spend money they haven't earned to buy things they don't want to impress people they don't like.
