Congrats on the sticky. I remember reading somethin Sergio said about getting the flow at the rated amount if the peristatic is set for full output. But if you opt for a variable flow unit, the ouput was not as consistent when setting the speeds. So the long and short, don't order a variable output, just use a timer or dilution to get one's desired ferts in the tank and use a one speed (flow) unit.
