Hey everyone.

I've FINALLY setup my tank and I've just recently put the Cor20 at the return. But something doesn't feel right. No matter what percentage I put between 30% and 100%, the max GPH on my flow sensor is 190-195. And seeing the sump turnover, it feels like it's only that much.

I tested this COR20 by initially looping it to the drain line and it seemed to be okay, whooshing, but even with a 6-8 foot head, I don't know why it's "trickling" out at less than 200. Is this common?

I'm going to initially try resetting the pump to work standalone just in case something is off in the software?
 
oH.. FOUND THE ISSUE.. wow, you'd think the plumbing that came with a 150g would be capable of at least 1,000 GPH, but it was not. But I fixed it!
