This follows a thread I have about algae:
I have a Oase thermosmart 100 filter for an ADA 60-P
The filter is rated for 600LPH
I measured the flow following an algae outbreak and it was approx. 140LPH
I've just removed all filter media, cleaned down the inside, the propeller, and measured the flow again with no filter media in and it measured about the same.
This suggests that something else is restricting my flow (inline CO2?) or the filter is faulty. Before I take apart the whole set-up does anyone have any similar experience on this?
Thanks
