no need to post since Anthony said it here for ya. the times of fast flowing sump are over with huge pumps to power them. With a slow flow sump you get more skimming and more time for the heater to work and less time for crap to make it to your display tank.

![]() i am getting mixed messages but i think i will be fine with the 200 gph going threw the sump cuz the center compartment on my sump will be a small refugium which correct me if im wrong but they usually like lower flow rates?

![]() What every one seems to be saying is that you'll be fine. The lower rate gives your skimmer and heater more time to work.

![]() you can still have a return that is running at 900 GPH and a refugium that is flowing at 200 gph just tee off the return to go to the refugium and a slow rate while the rest will return to the display tank.
