Submersible pump info

I hav got myself a new internal submersible pump, 3 compartments with filter media, 1200l/h. Is this one enough for filtration in my 260l tank?

 

Should be - even if we assume that you will only get 60% efficiency if the 1200l/h is the pump rating.
Many factors influence this - fish stock vs filter media.

Thanks ferdie.

At the one lfs they said for my tank a 8oo l/h pump fits the tank. But bought this one from another store and went bigger to get more filtered water per hour.

 

Long story - but l/h flow rate is either a good thing or a bad thing depending on what the filter setup is..

Let me see if I can find that thread ..
