Hi guys just need some advice/help with my 75 gallon tank to make it more clean and less maintainance, although my tank has already good filtration.. I just want to maximize the usage of my filtration. So anyone can give me advice? my filter is a 4ft Trickle Filter or also known as overhead sump... consist of 12 trays, 4 trays each row.. medias are bottom from top: siporax ceramic ring(bottom), biocubes(same usage as bioballs 3rd layer), 2nd layer is sera wool, 1st layer is wool with sponge. pump is rio2500... and i also have Seaquest 1600 on the other side just an extra pump to move the poo to the other side of the tank, any advice on how to maximize the usage of my filter?? just need some opinion.. thanks

even the pump? the turnover rate is kinda low. whats the normal turnover rate of a tank?
If it's above the tank, you're not having to push the water anywhere, so there's no decrease in the pressure from the pump.
Are you having problems with the tank now? Any outbreaks of algae? Water chemistry fine? Do scheduled water changes? If everything looks good now, I think you're good to go. I wouldn't worry about it.
