Ok, so I understand flow when pertaining to GPH.
My pump/overflow on my 46g is probably circulating the water at close to 400gph, so around 8-9x would be safe to say.
But then I hear about people adding more flow my using powerheads in the tank and this is where you lose me. How do you even measure this kind of flow and how does it compare to the main system flow using the pump/overflow? For a reef tank how much flow overall should you have? I've heard as little as 4x and as much as 40x! :shock:
Secondly, considering my current setup, what size Koralia would you recommend and how many?
Thanks!
