Hi Gang! :)

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

So I just installed a COR 20 with a FS-100 inline and I'm getting some crazy number for the FS.

I added another FMM to the system and it's still reading high. It's equally as high either plugged into the Apex directly or into the added FMM.

Is it possible that I have a bad FS?

When I set the COR to 1% for feeding, the FS still shows 1900+...

Should I try another FS or am I missing something?

Help! :)

Interesting. Is the FS mounted vertically or horizontally?
 
Vertically... I am limited as to mounting options. So I can't really try horizontally.

I have no real experience as I use a bucket and stop watch if I am wondering.

I would GUESS that vertical would be what they are designed for but asked in case others had the same question, and hopefully a real answer.
 
I appreciate you asking... it's been soild 2400ish since installation.

Based on the COR 20 running at 80%, I wonder if I should just accept the reading and know that it's just about half of the true flow.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?
