Waterbox 65.4 Return Pump Question

[paradizecityz]

So I searched around and saw someone posted that WB recommended to them max flow to 650 gph but on their website, they recommended Sicce 3.0, which is 714 gph. So I'm a little confuse to which is correct?

I have the Sicce 3.0 but have to turn it to minimum. If anything more than that, the return chamber drops water level and the return baffle is almost to the top, is it too strong???

The Sicce 3.0, with a max output of 714 gph, will be pumping well under 650 gph after head loss from plumbing.

Does that help?

Alright guys. First post with many to come. I ordered on cyber Monday the very new with not many examples waterbox 65.4. 65 gallons 4 feet wide. All in one. I also ordered two ai prime 16hds with it and the stand. Only thing I need to buy is a heater and return pump. For now. What gph is best...
