Too much flow ?

I know silly question but do I have to much flow in a 75g. I currently have 2 KORALIA #3's 850GPH and a Eheim wet/dry 2229 pulsating filter.
Thanks. ;D

 

75x50=3500gph
i don't know the flow rate of a ehiem but i don't think it has 1700gph so no

 

Since Im a noob and learning ... what does the equation represent ?

Thanks

 

75 gallon tank with ideally 50 times turn over rate of water equals 3750 gallons per hour.

 

Unless you are blowing sand all over the place you will be ok.

 

+1 on what Otty said. If you've got sand flying or corals getting ripped off of the rocks, you have too much flow.

That's basicly the judge on flow. You have too much when your corals or snails or what have you can't hang on

 

I think you're far from too much flow as well, it might depend what you're trying to keep though. You can probably do with less than 50x tank volume for flow if you're only keeping LPS/softies, I think just try not to have too many places where detritus collects in the rocks or on the sand.

Personally I'm shooting for 50x though.

 

NEVER TOO MUCH! Go big or go home! Just ask Otty about flow!
