I have always assumed that flow referred to the water movement inside the tank and turnover referred to flow out of/ into the tank via overflows etc.?
After reading a number of threads many folks seem to use these terms interchangably....
Would like to reduce overflow rate in my 265 for noise/energy/heat reasons. I currently use a Sequence 1000 for the return pump. I have Dolphin Ampmaster 3000 on a CL and powerheads as well. Can I get away with using a smaller return pump which will reduce overflow volume ? What would be the recommended "turnover" thru the overflows for an SPS dominated tank of that size ?
