![]() around 125 gallon, 4 k4's (4800), and a Mag 18 return (1800) so grand total of 6600 gph. I assume the mag losses around 600gph due to plumbing so 6000 gph (around 48 x per hour) when everything is running (around 3-4 hours a day) and 3600 gph (around 28.8 x per hour) when the wavemaker is turning 2 K4s on and the other 2 off in a 45 second rotating cycle.

![]() In my 125gal I have around 7400 GPH. (Mag18 return, 2x Koralia 4, 1x Koralia 3 and 2x Vortech MP40W's running about 80% on Lagoon Mode) for about 60x turnover per hour.

![]() My reef is SPS dominated. And my guess of 60x is on the conservative side, and I am considering adding more flow still.

![]() 220 gallon mixed tank
2x 750 gph return pumps = 1500 3x Koralia 4s (1200 gph) = 3600 Total = 5100 gph 5100 / 220 = 23 x I will be adding a vortech pump as soon as I can find a good deal. Last edited by Frenchie; 01-14-2009 at 10:23 PM. |
