Powerhead Recommendations
I am looking for something cheap and controllable for a shallow reef with a sandbed. Obviously dont want to blow the bed all over the place. Tank is 24x24x12. I am leaning towards Jebaos, but am worried they will be overpowered, especially using 2 of them. I dont know if you can turn down the max flow or not.

Used MP10WES x2. You'll save a ton vs the new ones and since the tank is on the smaller side you will need to run them on lower speeds which will cut down on their noise (vs the newer ones).

1 mp10 QD is more than enough flow

U should be ok with two rw 4 but I wouldn't get anything bigger than that. I think the rw 8 would be a little to powerful

Yes I was worried about even one rw4, and I really wanted two to create conflicting flow patterns. I definitely would not even consider rw8s
