How much flow does a 40 gallon reef need?
Turtle. Rule of thumb is go for 20x water volume in flow minimum. SPS tanks require much stronger flow, but most softies like things slower. So for 40g I would get pumps to equal 800gph.07.08.2017
How do I choose a powerhead?
Flow Rates
On average, you’ll want the water in your aquarium to turn over 6 to 10 times per hour. To ensure that your powerhead will do this, calculate the flow rate of your aquarium. Once you have your flow rate, you can look for a powerhead that will generate enough flow to keep your aquarium running smoothly.15.04.2022

How many GPH do I need for a 40 gallon saltwater tank?
for a 40 breeder mixed reef, you should shoot for at least 1600 gph in tank circulation.04.05.2020
Do fish like powerheads?
This is a question we hear quite often, and in our opinion the answer is yes. Some aquarists discourage the use of powerheads. They consider them to be an extra generating heat source, and may introduce unwanted stray voltage into an aquarium.01.10.2012

you NEED powerheads and your tank will not succeed without flow. without something to move the water around the corners will quickly fill with detritus and your water quality will suffer. consider that the entire goal of a saltwater tank is to replicate the ocean.11.07.2017
How much flow should I have in my tank?
The needed flow rate for a reef tank is (size of tank) x (turnover). For example 50g x 20 = 1,000gph. Therefore, if you have a 50 gallon aquarium, you should aim to have at between 500 and 1,000 gallons per hour of flow at a minimum.04.07.2021
How much flow for soft corals?
For soft corals and LPS corals aim for at least 20 times turn over, and for SPS corals, at least 50 times tank volume turnover per hour. So for a 250 litre reef tank, it needs a minimum flow of 5000lph and for SPS corals it would need 12500lph.
How much flow does a return pump need?
Return pumps flow should be 5-10x aquarium volume every hour. The pump flow should match the flow rate recommended for the protein skimmer to ensure maximum filtering efficiency. Return pipe bends, diameter & pumping height all reduce flow rate which must be accounted for, but is easily calculated.
Do powerheads oxygenate water?
The Benefits of Using Powerheads. Powerheads provide important water circulation and oxygenation in the aquarium, far more efficiently than the bubbles from air stones do.11.03.2022
What size powerhead do I need for a 55 gallon aquarium?
For an SPS-dominated reef tank, the hourly water turnover should go up to 40 times. A quick example would be that if yours were a 55-gallon reef aquarium it would require powerheads with a total pumping capacity of between 1100 and 2200 GPH.06.01.2020
What is the difference between a powerhead and a wavemaker?
A fish tank powerhead typically shoots a narrow jet of water in one direction, whereas a wave maker is meant to imitate the back-and-forth motion of ocean waves. For more information, read our full article on water circulation.

How many GPH does a 200 gallon tank need?
Turnover through the sump only needs about 3-5x the system volume, so somewhere in the 700-900 gph would be fine for return flow.10.05.2017

How often can I add fish to my saltwater tank?
Always stock the aquarium slowly, you never should add more than 2 fish at one time, and always add them at least two weeks apart. This gives the beneficial bacteria the necessary time to adjust to the new level of fish waste in the aquarium.
Can a pump be too strong for a fish tank?
But if the fish are always struggling to stay in one place, the flow would be too much. Strong flow in a planted aquarium can push the plants so much that they lean over. This looks natural with Vallisneria but unnatural for sword plants. Some fish are not strong swimmers.
How many GPH does a 30 gallon tank need?
120 gph
We generally recommend that on average, you turn over your aquarium volume four times per hour. This means that if you have a 30 gallon tank, you need a pump and filter with flow rates of around 120 gph.
How many GPH does a 50 gallon tank need?
For example, for a 50-gallon tank look for a pump rated at least 250-500 GPH. When the pump is in use on your tank, the head pressure created by the plumbing will slow the pump down and likely achieve a flow rate somewhere in the 150 – 350 GPH range, right in the sweet spot.
