Personally I prefer lower flow. I run a MJ1200 as my return (50 breeder DT with a 45 gallon sump/fuge).

A few reasons:
  • Faster flow = more noise. (overflow gurgle and potentially return pump noise)
  • Lower flow = less chance of microbubbles


Heidi - the MJ option is inexpensive and very durable.
