2 MP10wES pumps on 90gal
I bought a used setup that came with these two pumps. Is this enough to keep some LPS and softies or should I look to upgrade? I have them running in reef crest mode as master and slave.

I started with two mp10 on my 90 gallon. Was good flow but some dead spots for me. Added a 3rd on the back wall now it is awesome. Run them on reef crest mode.

yea they should work great, two on a 4ft tank should be plenty, depending on your return pump as well, and could always add a third like KIES1 suggested

I think you'll find that they are not quite enough. I had 2 on my 72 and it was ok. Added an mp40 when I upgraded to my 90, and have since added another mp40. I'm currently running all 4 on my 90g mixed reef.
