Just wanted to point out that the difference that the 5 gallons made was not that drastic with respect to what your intial SG was. If this is in your 75 gallons, than the initial SG was 1.025. The point still remains, in that Refractometers are more accurate than Hydrometers.

I am setting a sump that it's a 20 gallon tank (24"L x 16"H x 12"W). I was wondering about how to figure what is the maximum flowrate that I can run on this size tank. Well if there is a way to figure that out, that is. Thanks for any help that can be provided.
