Default Optimum flow rate through filter.

My research has shown conflicting answers.. Some quoting "1 pond-volume
of
water every 2 hours", others saying "2 pond-volumes of water every hour"




That's ponding for you. ;-) The above can all be correct, based on size of
pond, size of filter and residents within. ~ jan



Is there anything wrong in adjusting the flow to the maximum rate that the
filter can handle even if it exceeds the recommendation?

In other words, is too much filtration a bad thing?
