water flow rate affects CO2 reactor's efficiency?

[illumbomb]

Hi,

I am using a CO2 reactor (Up 401) connected to an internal filter (Atman AT-F101). The filter has a flow rate of 500L/hr but the recommended flow rate for the reactor is abou 200L/hr.

Question: Will the flow rate significantly affects the efficiecy of the CO2 reactor?

Thanks.

Wang, the flow rate stated is the pumping rate of the pump or the filteration flow rate? Usually, the faster the flow rate the better...as long as you don't see bubbles burping out from the reactor, it is fine. []
