How do you know what size of a chiller, wavemaker, and pump you need for what size of a tank. Does it use the watts per gallon method? I'm pretty sure the pump uses gallons per minute, am I correct? Also how much Watts per gallon (or whatever it is, that what I'm trying to find out in this thread) do you need for a pump, chiller, and wavemaker?

Here's a good heater/chiller sizing calculator that I've found it to be pretty accurate: http://www.hamzasreef.com/Contents/Calculators/HeaterChillerSizing.php
In terms of pump size, there are too many variables to give an answer. It's like asking, how long of a piece of string do I need?...well, for what?

for pump don't they use the method "gallons per minute", or is that too inaccurate
For pumps, gallons per hour is what they use most often
