Just set up a waterbox 50.3 and looking for advice on Powerheads and flow. The tanks going to be a mixed reef but primarily LPS. My thoughts were either a gyre jump 2k or 330 or 2 Nero 3s. What’s y’all thoughts?

If you're talking about a Maxspect Gyre 330 - That is a very nice piece of equipment.

In running both Maxspect and Red Sea gyres (both made by Maxspect, incidentally), I've found the Red Sea to be a superior design/performance.

To the OP's question, a pair of Nero 3s will be plenty for that size of tank.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
