Howdy all, I've been trolling for a while and I appreciate all the knowledge everyone has given me!
I am setting up a 150 w/ 55 gal sump. DT is drilled with two pairs of holes for 1" lines. Found a good deal on the Fluval SP6 under $200, but am wondering if that will be way too much flow for my system to handle. I am planning to split off a portion for a fuge and another split for each of the 2 returns.
Of course I can ball valve it to restrict flow and my returns will only be 3/4". There will be almost 6' of vertical head, plus fittings and such.
Should I jump on it or just go with the SP4? Just worried that SP4 won't be enough after head loss.
Thx!
