Hi, you have a 800L tank and using a 3,600Lph pump. This would mean the water circulates abt 4 times thru the filter every hour. If your filter is large enough or if you have more than one filter and the water is clear and the parameters are good, why not? The important considerations here is whether at this speed, the filter is able to perform it's function. Make sure that there is no restriction of water flow in media as this may lead to overflowing of water from filter box if this is situated on top of tank. Is the water current excessive? These are some important considerations. One way to reduce water flow into one filter is by diverting some water to another filter. This is just my view. Any others are welcome.
