Hello,
What would the turnover for a 26,000-gallon salt water tank be? it is 4 times the volume ?? please help
 
To me assuming your heaters are in the sump is enough turn over to have efficient heat transfer. I've never kept a tank of that size, but the basic rules still apply. 4 times would be okay, although I would think 5 times would be safer.
 
I’ve never kept anything that large either. As mentioned efficient heat transfer is likely the most important.
 
Mike Paletta (500 Gal) now has 70 times flow at the 6:26 video mark in his recent interview 4 months ago on the american reef youtube channel. he says both words flow and turnover so im not sure which is what.
