    I'm planning a 75 gallon build using Glass-Holes.com dope aquarium stuff 1500 overflow. When it comes to my return pump I wanted to get the Syncra 5.0 Pump. My question is do you think I could drill my tank with 3 holes and hook up 3 Innovative Marine Spin Stream using the Syncra 5.0 Pump? :confused: do you think I would need more flow for sps coral?

    that pump is like 1300 GPH and divided by 3 you get 433 GPH before head loss. The spin streams need like 100-600 GPH to work, right? If my math is right you should be fine. I would get a larger pump if you don't already have the Syncra 5.0 already IMO.
