Hello, I'm planning a 65gal mixed reef tank. It's a JBJ 65. gal AIO (ok, I'll post pictures when I get started!). The display portion has a footprint of 36x15.4 and a volume of 48 gal. The remainder is the sump portion at the back. I'm planning which pumps to get. Right now, I want either a
Tunze 6040
or
Tunze 6055
My dilemma is that they are expensive and I don't want to do it wrong and have to buy again...
So, by water volume, it's a 65 gal tank but effectively it's a 48 I think. It has a pair of pumps that are 396 gal / hr each. This will really just filter the water not move the reef.
The more I write, I think the Tunze 6040 should be enough but I don't want to undersize the pumps and not have enough power.
Any thoughts?
