Hey guys... long time reader, first time poster :P

anyway.... I've read a lot of posts, articles and the like. Some say you need high flow rate, others say low flow rate is better, others say that high flow rate is nice but isnt any better than low flow rate.

The trend I've seen lately (is it my imagination?) is to say that low flow rate is better but then at the same time I see that when someone asks 'which pump?' the common answer is the eheim 1250 -- which isnt exactly low flow rate.

So as it pertains to a 'generic' setup (HeaterCore + Maze3/Spiral Design WB). Which is better?

Thanks
