here is another dumb question, how can I find out how much flow I have going in my tank? This tank was given to me and I am still learning what is what with it. No my hair is brown
You'll need to look at the specs on all of your equipment to determine the Gallons Per Hour flow....for example...my powerhead flows 280 gph, the pump in my sump flows 780 gph...this gives me a total of 1060 gph... on a 72 gal tank. It is recommended for a fish only w live rock tank to turn your water 10 x's per hour.
Hope this helps
