Hey Guys & Gals,
I was just reading in an article from the Albert J. Thiel. On coral disease and solutions. But I came out of it with a question.
How much water (per hour) should flow from the tank to the sump and back?
I have a 75G reef with 15G sump/refugium. If I go by what is written in this article I would need 1500GPH flow rate:bugout: . If I do this, then I think my plants down in the sump will not only uproot but end up in the main tank after being munched by the pump.
Or am I wrong on this assumption?
Here is the article I am referring to.
