2 wp40's on a 125?

jpitch · 12/05/2013, 04:50 PM

Methodically setting up my 125 build. Are 2 wp40's set on low settings too much flow for a bb mixed reef? Mainly sps with some lps near the bottom.

I have 2 mp 40's on a corner 92......Lps, sps & a few softies are lovin life!!! I don't put them on night mode either, back when I first set up my tank that discussion came up & someone said that the ocean doesn't shut down at night & that made a lot of sense to me!!!

I would say four of them on high wouldn't be too much flow. On my 300 I have five mp 40's and 2 wp 60's

Awesome. I was thinking that perhaps I'd get some spillage if I had too much. Thanks all!
