But its also about block design then.

Many blocks see no difference with different flow rates.

Take Cathars as an example. He has stated that there is hardly (>1ºC) difference when using a Eheim 1048 (600lph 1.5H) or a 1250 (1200lph ?H).

Yet he could design a block that uses large pumps effectively.

I'd prefer to use 1/2" tubing as it allows for a better range of components, and optimisations, in my opinion. Different pumps, blocks, etc. easily.
