One thing that we have to remember is when we have a sump system people tent to treat the water in it as different from the water in the tank, it is all one system and one large water volume, so in reality the flow is a mute point as the water in the system all gets skimes at the same rate no mater what the flow through the sump is, Unless you go with a ultra low flow then you are putting enough of a seperation to the system to actualy had different water qualities in your Sump than you do in the tank, not by much but if the flow is low enough there is a possibility, a fast water flow helps disperse/desolve/spread things more evenly and faster. I guess the point is to think of your system as a system not two systems, the sump just give a remote option for hiding equipment not a seperate water system. Steve

No problem. I'm so used to using that term in PLC programming that I forget others don't know what it stands for.
