Pump Flow Rate & Tank Size
I am planning for either a 522 or 422 tank with sump filtration. Keeping Aro. Previously I was using OHF. I am new to Sump filtration. Hope you guys don't mind if I asked some basic questions.
What is the ideal pump flow rate for these 2 tanks? Sump tank volume must also be included correct? Is 5 cycles of filtration per min sufficient? Any difference for adult or juvenile Aros? Any brands to recommend? Eheim seems popular. Need additional Air pump for this size tanks? Thanks! |

RTG. Thanks for advice

No problem. If you getting more than 5000l, eheim does not have more than 5000l pump. Can consider other brands and take note of the max height. Can look at the performance curve. Normally for sump, the height, pipes and bends will reduce the flow rate.

Preferred 522 for RTG, more space to swim.

Bro, are u talking about 5 cycle per hour?
5 cycle per min your tank going to have tsunami..😂😂😂 Quote:
