I’ve set up a15 gallon nano. I upgraded the return pump to a 152gph and put a voyager nano 1000 on as well. I’ve had 2 LFS employees tell it’s too much and I’ve had others tell me to go with it. Any opinions would be appreciated.

I'd probably run the return pump @40-50% (max) if you can. The Sicce Voyager Nano 1000 is probably perfect for this size - yielding 270Gph flow (about 15-20x tank volume).

So your LFS is partially correct.

Thanks for the response.
