Hey,
I’m planning on buying this for my 15 gal peninsula. I’d rather have the 2-way output for more “randomness”. Does this mean I should increase my GPH?

I do believe that those require a higher flow input to maintain the desired output compared to a "standard" return nozzle. The product you listed calls for 80-100 GPH minimum, but 200-300GPH for optimal flow.

Alright. 200-300 from just the return seems a bit extreme as it’s originally sold for the Fluval 13.5. My return is roughly 150GPH, but after installing the RFG, I will adjust flow where necessary.

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
