Thread: what is your Gallons Per Hour... per gallon?

    Default

    2-k3's-1600 gph
    1- closed loop 1200
    1- return 800 gallons

    3,600 gph turnover on a 75gal = 48x

    Could probably use just a little bit more.

    cheers,

    Wow you guys really flow!

    3 k4's - 1200 gph
    eheim 1262 return - 900 gph
    for 185 is 24 times per hour.

    I definitely need more flow.

    Hmmmm...

    3 Koralia 4's X 1200GPH
    Return Pump...CS Velocity T4 @ 1200GPH
    Minus say 300GPH for bends and head pressure
    Then 150gal minus LR and sand plus sump volume....I'm guessing about 140 gallons of water volume...

    so 4500/140 = 32ish

    Man, I though mine was high...but you guys really have some flow going.
