MP40's on opposite end of tank

[pdiehm]

My tank is 60" long. Should I be running them in sync or anti-sync? If anti-Sync, what percentage recommended?

Also, right now just fish but the plans is sps dominant. What percentage do you recommend when running through various program?

In have 2 on an a 4' 120 running anti sync about 50%. May go higher as things grow in.
Also have 2 MP60's on an 8' 240 in a SPS tank. Also running anti sync about 85%

Here is what I have. Anti-Sync at 75%. I know the time is messed up. Fixed that.

Hi there,

Have a question for you. I'm starting a Red Sea Reefer 250 and not sure what to use for flow? Should go with two MP40's or two/three MP10's for my new set up which will be mostly SPS. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!
Sorry for asking on your post, ndrwater!

Thanks,

Not a problem at all. If it were me, I would probably go with 2 MP40's and maybe later add a 10 if needed. On my 240 I added another 40 when the colonies got big enough. I also have 2 MP10's that I can add to the 120 as necessary.
Honestly, with SPS, you can't go wrong with a TON of flow..

Just started a Reefer 250. Started out with an MP40 and an MP10 I had from earlier. The glass (1/2") is thicker than speced for the MP10 (3/8") and I found it to run a little noisy. I went ahead and picked up another MP40. I put them on either side of the overflow on the back and find I can really generate nice combinations of flow and it looks about invisible. I only run them at about 35% and they are dead silent.

What equipment are you running on your 250?
I'm going with two Radion Gen 4 Pro's, Vectra M1, Bubble Magus BM-T11 Dosing Pump, GFO Reactor, Chaeto Reator, and a Reef Octopus Classic 152-S skimmer. Anything I should add for a successful SPS tank?

Thanks again for the input!

Don't want to go off topic, but my build thread is here...haven't updated with latest changes (including MP40 rather than 10). PM me or ask any question on that thread.
