Okay, I'm finishing setting up my tank and I'm having problems with micro-bubbles because I have too much water flow going through my sump. I wish I could upgrade the sump, but that's not an option at this point. So my question is whether or not it is okay to throttle back my pump. I'm pretty sure it is, I just want to double check to make myself feel better :wink:
The pump is a Sequence ReefFlo (which I am very pleased with). I only have a ball valve because it was originally there just to stop water flow during pump service (which it doesn't always do so well). My plan is to close the valve about 1/4 turn or so. I still get good flow this way, and have fewer problems. Basically I'm just looking for a supportive voice in this long project. Thanks for any help.
