Sea Swirl question

Sea swirls require more plumbing from your return line or other closed loop.

I am not sure they will require any additional plumbing if used as part of the normal return system. Closed loop of course. One can also add a random flow nozzle at the end which is nice.

At least in my installation it didn't require anything additional.

Sweeps are much simpler to setup.

Without a doubt.
 
My tank is 48"x24"x20"... would the Tunze 6105 be sufficient?
 
Would two sea swirls or two sea sweeps be better for a 48"x24"x20"?
I have 2 Sea Swirls with RFA's on my return. My tank is a 4' 150 gallon. It works very well at creating chaotic flow throughout my tank.

Do you have a pic with how they look on your tank? What degrees do they rotate side to side?

They rotate almost 90°
