750 Gph in a 30?-Filters, etc..-3reef Forums

Ok, I may have gone into Ludicrous Speed here- I replaced the 130GPH powerhead with a 550, pushing total flow to ~750 GPH including the canister (running only biomax and coarse floss, I know, canisters are for freshwater... stoopid LFS). 29 gallons, topped off to the brim with 205 can and HOB skimmer. And I think I *still* need more rock...

Damn you are not kidding when you say you upgraded, lol
What are you planning on putting in your tank?

Next up is a 6-line, but after things stabilize (ie I stop messing with it) a brain, mushroom, or leather and an LTA. PC lights and a new tank (and owner) so SPS's only when I get there.

Wow, it's loud!

I have around 750 in my bio cube. tunze 6025 and my little ocean runner that came with the tank as a return. Prolly closer to 850, perfect amount of flow in m tank.

Moved it a little to point forward. Happy tank denizens now!
