WheresTheReef April 4, 2015 Share April 4, 2015 (edited) Purchased a CS1 skimmer kit yesterday that should be arriving tomorrow. I was hoping for a feed pump recommendation. Its final home will be in a 90g system with about 120g of total water volume. While I work on that build, I plan to run it on my existing tank (~50g water volume). Can I use the same feed pump on both tanks? From the specs you recommend a 100-300gph pump. When looking at the maxi-jet pumps (http://www.marineland.com/Products/aquarium-pumps-powerheads/maxi-jet-aquarium-powerhead-circulation-pump.aspx) which spec do I look at powerhead or circulation mode? thanks, Eric Edited April 4, 2015 by WheresTheReef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctenophore April 4, 2015 Share April 4, 2015 Hi Eric You'll want to use a MJ in regular powerhead mode. A MJ 400 is plenty for your case. No need to have much more than 1-2x system volume per hour turnover through skimmer. Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
