Having some trouble deciding flow combination for my 120 gallon (48x24x24) mixed reef tank. I was thinking of running an AI Oribit 4 on the right side of the tank and I’m stuck between an orbit 2 or maybe an Nero 5 or 7 on the other side. My Aquascape will be kind of an open concept so flow will be able to get all around the tank. What are your thoughts?

2 mp40 or DMP 40 we would produce plenty of flow.
 
I was looking at those options but the only thing I didn’t like is that it looks to bulky compared to ai

Yes, you could go DMP 20 or 30. The pro is taking the cords out of the tank.
