55 waterflow

Decided for now to try corals in my 55 fowlr to see how it goes before going bigger at some point. Would 2 korilia 750's be too much or a good amount of flow? Whats best positioning?

Two 750's will give you good flow (assuming you also have 200-300 gph running through the sump) for all corals. I would place them on the rear of the tank on opposite top corners and have them aimed towards the front center. Each tank's unique rock work will dictate final positioning. The goal is to eliminate dead flow zones.
