Bait tank turnover rate

Noob question about bait tank turnover rates as I am working to design a system for my kayak.

Searching online, I have found mainly 2 recommendations for rates, which are wildly different.

One recommendation is turning over the tank volume 42x per hour (so flow rate of 42 x tank volume, e.g. 210 gph for 5 gallon tank)

Another recommendation is gallons divided by .06, which comes up with 83 gph for that same 5 gallon tank, or approximately 17x per hour turnover.

As said, wildly differing recommendations. What's the common consensus on here?
