    Wow! I never expected the question to provoke such a response just for info I had purchased a cheap 240 l/hr pump, I'll see what the flow is like once I get it.

    Even if the pipework throttles the flow back to half that, it sounds about right. One reason I run my own pump on 5V rather than 12V is that the makers only rate it for 15mins max running at 12V, even though it is submerged in water. Runs for hours at 5V, though.

    Charlie,
    240l/hr is what it will manage completely un-choked, no barb, no pipework, no head. Half or even a quarter of that should be enough though.
    An optimist says the glass is half full, a pessimist says the glass is half empty, an engineer says you're using the wrong sized glass.
