i am looking into buying a vortech mp10 or 40. I was wondering if a 40 could be turned down low enough for my LPS coral. I would rather want to buy 1 MP40, rather then 2 MP10, since I am looking to upgrade to 180g down the road.
Which vortech

A 180 takes at least three mp40's.....Unless your 180 is coming next week, I'm not sure your 40B makes a logical starting point for that.
In your current tank, two or even three mp10's would be a much better flow situation.
Thing is, even at a minimum (i.e. two pumps), you're spending about $500 to $700. :confused:
An alternative set of strategies...only 1.5 of which is in that spending category: :cool:;)

3 x Turbelle® nanostream® 6045 ($78/ea) – $234/trio (or four) and a pair of simple timers can make a really nice tide simulation. You can start with only two.
..or..
2 x Turbelle® nanostream® 6055 ($185/ea) – $370/pr.
..or if you think wider-flow..
2 x Turbelle® nanostream® 6095 ($230/ea) – $460/pr.
..or..
2 or 3 x Turbelle® nanostream® 6040 ($140/ea) – $280/pr (or $420 for a trio)
