Does anyone have experience with maxspect duo 12k
Im looking for a return pump for my new 500L tank with 140L sump
Using bean animal overflow all 40mm pipe and return is 25mm pipe. Going for 10x system turnover.
Already bought
Maxspect gyre xf250 (from old tank
Maxspect Aeraqua duo skimmer rated 400-1700L (new)
Maxspect rsx 300w leds (from old tank)
And wireless controller for all of this
See the theme?
Turbine says 5500L with 5ft head but this probably doesn’t account for elbows and T connectors in plumbing and is about 9x turnover. After plumbing will probably be about 8x turnover.
Can anyone share their opinions on wether this is sufficient as i plan on using triton method which recommends 10x turnover. Also people with these pumps, what kind of LPH are you getting out of it?
