Jebao for tank size help

I'm very interested in buy one or two of these but i dont know what to get. I have a 40B and I've heard these things can really kick up some sand. What does everyone recommend for 40B?
What are you running?

A WP10 would suffice, but a 25 would open things up and give you more push across the tank. As long as you put it up towards the top and don't have sugar fine sand you should be ok. Use the wave mode rather than other modes that send more of a constant blast and you won't have any problems other than maybe some initial movement at the far edge while the tank gets acclimated to the current. Definitely nothing bigger than the WP25 though. I use a single 25 on my 37x33 cube and it hits every corner with tons of flow.

For reference I have 2 koralia 1050s 1 wp 25 and 2 wp 40 on my 4ft 120 sps barebottom and that is perfect imo.(all at full strength)

Go with 2 wp10s the 25s will be overkill.

1 25 will be perfect, 2 10s will be a little better as 2 pumps provide more circular flow if you angle them correctly

wp25

I have one in my 40b, really nice flow, but I`m actually thinking about adding a second one. Seems like most of the really nice flow is on side. I have a mixed reef..
Hope this helps.

I have 2 wp10s on my 50g and it's enough but not over powering.
