    I'm getting two separate aquamaxx reactors for for my tank. My reactor unit will be running off one pump with a split and ball valves controlling the tumble/flow going through the reactors, anyways my question is what size of pump is needed to achieve this? something quiet would be a + too.

    Thanks.

    I've always used little rio pumps on my reactors; small, affordable, low wattage, and reliable.

    I've always used seperate pumps on each reactor too. If one fails, then you're not out everything.

    Ok thanks evolved, Another quick question is which department in the sump do I set my pumps in and which section do I return the water to? My sump goes like this (Skimmer/Fuge/Return)
