Flow question
I got a couple new corals yesterday and a unsure about the low, med, high flow. Anyone help with numbers for pumps for a 125, I have 2 aqua clear 70's and 3 maxi jet 1200's 1 with mod prop. Have a rio 3100 for return with head getting about 600-650 gph.

Re: Flow question
What corals do you have and what ones are looking to house? It somewhat depends on the corals you wana have some need lots some need just a litte flow. But i wana say you need like 40X flow of the tanks size. For me i need med flow so i have about 25-30x my flow.
FIY good flow is a must for reef tanks.
