Bx Chris' Red Sea Reefer 250 V3 Sump

[bxchris]

New to the hobby. Took delivery of my Reefer 250 about 2 weeks ago. Been building my knowledge. The internet is a wonderful thing but its slow going on your own. My current question is how much power should I give the cor 15.

Also, alot of people said to swap out the diaphram valve. However,I find it good. After adjusting the overflow level equalizes in about a minute.

Agreed, over 1 yr and the valve been workin fine for me. Not sure why so many seems to have issues with it.

I read somewhere just recently that a guy with a Cor-15 and a RSR 250 had his pump set at 45% (which came out to be 300gph-ish, he had a neptune flow meter on it so he had a specific reading) I plan on running the same setup soon and will probably run the cor-15 around 45-65%

I'm at 55% right now. Was just wondering if I should go higher
