hello, my current tank is 48”x24”x16” and i have 2 MP40’s for flow, i had the MP40’s in my last tank 24x24x24 but im thinking with how low this tank is the MP40s may be bit much. I think i might be better off with the Gyre style pump? How would you go about flow for this tank? It'll be mixed reef but mainly SPS (Millies).

Mostly sps? I'd probably stick with those mp40s and run them a little slow. That mixed with your return lines is going to be great imo. If you'd like, a gyre xf330 with a mp40 would be what I would do if I had nothing. But having 2 mp40s on hand, I'd go that route instead
