Currently I have an MP40 on my 57gallon Deep Blue tank. I run it in reefcrest mode at about 50% and while I like the flow, it doesn't seem random enough for me and would like to either ad a pump on the opposite side of the tank, or get rid of it and start over. I don't think I want another MP40 just due to price and an MP10 doesn't really stay put on the tank due to the glass thickness. I was thinking of either two Nero3s or Two Nero 5s. Or two Tunze 6055. What are your thoughts?

I'm sorry for the delayed response. Some of the decision on flow also includes the aquascaping and the plans for corals and other livestock. Nero 5s would seem like a good option without knowing the details - another thing to consider is a gyre like one of the #IceCap or #Maxspect gyres. Good luck with whatever you decide!
