Hello all.
I am getting ready to set up my new reef tank, and would like help picking out my circulation pumps. This is my first reef tank of this size, so I need help picking the right equipment. The tank is a 100 gallon (60x18x21) with an overflow in the left rear corner. 1x 1" drain and 1x 3/4" return. I have a brand new mag 9 that I was thinking about using for the return, unless I need something bigger/smaller.
For the curculation pumps I would like to know how many and what sizes you recommend. Let me start by saying I have cheap, easy access to Hydor Koralias, so I would like to stick to those. I am planning predominantly SPS with some LPS on the sandbed. Should I get 850's, 1150's, 1500's? 2, 4, 6, 8? You tell me what would be best in your experience. This is my first rodeo with this size sw tank, and my tank is 5x larger than my current tank so I need lots of guidance.
Thanks in advance.
