How much water flow is typically required in a peacock bass tank ? Turnover rate?
I have read some posts and some mention that 10x flow would be too fast for any beneficial bacteria to grow on submerged media in the sump. Any thoughts on this ?Not a requirement but my personal experience this works really well also lots of clean water keep up with water change schedule

Don’t you have a large tank 900 gallons or so? Lightly stocked?My turnover is 3x per hour. No issues with clarity or ammonia.
While it may work for you, your tank is lightly stocked as stated above so youre more or less filtering a small pond. For most tanks a minimum of 5x is usually recommended with 8x+ being idealMy turnover is 3x per hour. No issues with clarity or ammonia.
