Richard you were right, and yes it did make a difference. I measured one gallon in ten seconds (exactly), out of one of four outputs, then I multiplied that times four for a total of 24 gallons in a minute, and 1,440 gph. I am glad I recalibrated. Now I need to adjust my expensive gate valve to lower my flow. I owe that little pan world pump an apology I guess. I am figuring it out as we speak to get the correct flow.

What model Pan World are you using?
Thanks,

Pan world 200ps. It is one step down from the 250ps. The 200ps is rated at 1750 max gph with a max head pressure rated at 39ft. The 250ps is 1900gph max flow with a max head pressure of 45ft. (Here is a decent short read on head pressure ( http://www.aquariumpros.com/articles...%20pressure%22 ) Richard and Mark got the pump for me so I don't know where to get one from, I think I paid under $250. It is nice a quiet compared to the Iwaki ones that I have heard and it also comes with a heavy duty 6ft. power cable.
