I beleive that just means that a 126gph pump is what they recommend for a 20 gallon fish tank.

Yes... it means that it will efficiently pump water for a 20 gallon fish tank.

Fish gunk has to get sucked in fast enough into the filter, so the fishies can be happy. That is why they have maximum supported fish tanks. :)

Actually the that pump is a 270 GPH aqua clear (see sig) I run 2 of those in a 6x6x4 junction box.
<EDIT> Ah. Sorry you were looking at the 201 model.
