Hey all, I am going to be setting up a 4x8 table and was wondering what size pupm is needed? I like mag drive pumps, so I'll probably go with on of those. So either the 950 gph or the 1200 gph? What do you guys think?

are you doing NFT EBB&FLOW a bunch of top feed rock wool, what...
because all of those are different factors.

I'm gonna be doing ebb and flow with 5" containers of biobizz coco. 2-1000 watters per table, 16 plants per light. The room is gonna be sealed, with the temps at 85* with co2. Do you think I would need a water chiller for this system?

I will also be setting up a couple 4x4 tables and have the same questions. 500 gph pump or 700 gph pump?

I use eco plus 1065's for my 4x8 - floods in 5 minutes with just a little oversplash. 800 is pretty much perfect, 500 for the 4x4!

Thanks for the response, maybe I'll go with ecoplus instead.
