Does anyone know a good way to measure GPH off a powerhead?
garagebrian said:I only know of one way(because I've never looked for another). I had a pump I bought used that I had no idea how much GPH it had. So I put it in my sump near the bottom, attached the output to the return line to my main tank. I made a mark on the sump at the low water line, then filled up the sump with a known number of gallons of water(I think around 20) and ran the pump until it returned back down to the mark on the sump. I timed this with a stopwatch and that gave me an CRUDE approximate GPH.
