Anyway, just don't be a dummy and put animals in front of the muzzle of your powerhead. Problem solved.
I'm with Albert on this one.
40 is a min flow, I would go more but what's more important is how you active that flow.
You only need about 10 x through the sump if you have a sump that can't handle the high flows. There was a huge three on this a couple years ago. Do a search and you''ll find lots of info.
