| Try one of the Wavy Sea's. That way it will move water back and forth and not just blast it in one direction. _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)

| I really never saw the point of having so many pumps inside the tank for water flow. It clutters the tank, view wise. I have a magdrive 18 as the return pump and 4 sections of loc-line spray bars. You can point each spray bar where ever you want and get the flow that you need, even point one or two at the surface to avoid the surface scum build up and if you have mh get that schimmering effect. simple but effective.  _________ 9YR OLD 90G 30G w/d Mag18 150G skimmer 692w MH,yel&kole tang,foxface,midas&convict blenny,B&G chromies,Blk/yel fin chromie blackcap,nemo,neon goby,6line; Blastomussa Merleti,Acan ,BUBBLE,Torch,LTA, Goniopora(2), Acropora(2),Brain, Moon, assort zoas, yel& G star polyps, R&G open brain, P&B ricordia, montiporas, cup&candy corals, enias,B/G mush,flower ane(2), cherry red mussa, dusters,cleaning crew

| the Hydor Koralia 3 Circulation Pump/Powerhead UL 850 gph were very tempting.i only have a couple areas that gather dirt on the corals so i think the 2 SEIO m620 pumps will give me the wide current i need for my small tank.the maxi jets were cheep but they seemed like they would blast a narrow stream.i'll see thursday or friday how well i choose.i found this thread very informative.thanks to all who gave their input.like i said,cost is a factor.its taken yrs to peice together my equipment and from experience i know its not good to go too cheap so i get as nice as i can afford and continue patiently peicing my tank together.just upgraded the main pump and heater cause i went too cheap with them.

| We use Koralias on our tank too. They are really good pumps and I love the fact that they use magnets instead of useless suction cups to hold them to the glass. |
