Really? That’s a small pump I was expecting it needed more flow? Do you have a model number? Do you ever come towards Long Island?

It needs a feed pump (about 600 gph maybe) and a pump to run the venturi. I ran a double venturi version of this with a fluval SP2 but you could run a bigger pump if you wanted it on a very large tank (over 250 gallons maybe).

I have the same one. I have it over 15 yrs. The pump that originally came with it was a quiet one 1100 gl hr to pump the venturi side. I believe the feed is around 700.

I have a Iwaki 100 return pump on my 180 gal and used a manifold setup to feed the skimmer
