| Yoda Poohbah~ | Re: UV question you can put it inline. but it will decrease return rate by about 30gph. are you using it as a preventative or proactive filter?

| Golden Moray | Re: UV question now my tank is a 90 gallon AGA with a megaflow overflow, is there a return rate i should be targeting or will the 750 realm be ok? i have read that the megaflow will handle 600 gph and at a 4 foot return the 780 should be right around 600, so minus the 30 i t hink i'll be safe also, what about the inlet/outlet sizes, will this be ok? sorry for so many questions |
