Equipment????

[quote author=reefman_MC link=board=Newbie;num=1082074566;start=75#89 date=05/22/04 at 20:47:44]I have the 75 gallon All glass aquarium with the middle overflow hook up and I have a Mag 12 return. Which is 1200 GPH and it runs 2 feet to the aquarium. I thought that when you had a drilled tank it could be any GPH. [/quote]

hmm i was reading this from the AGA site

[glow=red,2,300]"Aquariums up to 110 gallons are fitted with one MegaFlow™ Overflow and are rated for a maximum flow through of 600 G.P.H."[/glow]

my tank is part number 12304 in case you wanna double check me ... i may just not be understanding this one

 

Reefman is this the same tank? I have not seen this type of tank before so I think I will let you run with it.

The durso pipe that they ripped off from Mr. Durso is nice. look alittle smallish to support any pump higher then what was recommended. whats ya think there reefman? Is your the same way? did you modify it some way to get to use a bigger pump?

 

I have a Mag-12 which is 1200 GPH with 2 feet head on my 75 AGA with the mega flow overflow and it works perfectly. I wouldn't think a 2 foot head could slow a pump down over half of it's rating. Not sure about this one. I say go with the Mag-7 just in case.

 

hmmm .... what does everone think about a dolphin 800? with my set up i would flow just a little over 550GPH witch is below the mag9.5 but considerably higher that the mag7. i hear it is a good quality product but none og my LFS stock them so i am getting suspious
