    I am trying to get ideas for my new 90g... Draw me some maps in paint for some ideas! I am aiming for an ideal SPS tank.

    I need basic shape of rock structure, flow amount and direction (arrows). Just a basic top view. Haven't bought the powerheads yet so anything goes! :cheesy:

    Awesome flow. How big is your tank and how many times is your water turned over per hour?

    I'll be tagging along. excited to see where this goes and how many more pics you get of flow charts.

    IIRC, Whisky has a 72 gallon bowfront. I think the bowfront actually helps a bit with deflecting water flow.
