How many pot scrubbies do you use per gallon? I would like to special order all of mine throught Do it Best Hardware, and I would only like to place one order. I have 40-80 gallons to fill.

I dont think there is a set number because the amount of water has little relevance in comparison to the amount of waste produced by your fish. Just go overboard.

Here is THE best place I know of to buy scrubbies...if you can beat this price please tell me but I highly doubt it.

Somewhere on here there is a surface area chart. You can do the math in comparison to bioballs. Bioballs are something like 2.2g of bb per 100g of tank. It's less for scrubbies because of the increased surface area.

if you buy 1 box you should have MORE than enough

If I'm understanding your question (after reading it twice), it sounds like your asking: scrubbies/sump space not scrubbies/gallon of tank water.

If it's 'how many scrubbies per x sump space', the see this post:

I was able to squeeze ~400 into half of a 55 gallon:
