It is recommended to put 3000ltr per hour through this skimmer. You can use a slightly larger pump and regulate the flow via the shut off valve on the exit pipe, as you will have some reduction in flow from pipe fittings etc.

The 6500 ocean runner is too big and if you are not carefull the skimmer could flood over the top of the cup because there is too much water going through the skimmer.
