Eheim 1260 or 1262?
Hello -
I have a 90g display tank that feeds into a 36g refugium then into the sump. I'm not sure how much the sump holds, maybe 20-27g. I'm currently using a Eheim 1260 for the return. I'm not sure if this matters , but I'll be using a SRO XP2000I skimmer. I'm wondering if I should upgrade to a 1262 for the return? Or stay with the 1260. Thank for your input.

I use a 1262 on my 110. It is almost a bit much.

get the 1260 and if you find its not enough(manifold with reactors and the like) you can always buy the 1262 volute(abut 10dollars) and you will have both the 1260 and 1262

i have a 1262 on my 90gal and it seems like a bit much flow now but i plan to add a frag tank into my system using one return pump so i feel that it is the perfect size for me.
