2- 6045 for a 125 mixed reef tank

[tony17321]

Just ordered two for my tank. The tank will mostly be soft and a couple sps. Just wondering if this will be enough flow?

Thanks

No, that would be just enough for a 58. You really need at a minimum a couple 6065's or possibly 4 6045's. Each of the 6045 will cover an 18" by 3ft area but for SPS it is definitely too weak.

Would 2 6065 and 2 6045 do?

That would likely work well very well. Two 6065s might be enough on their own depending on stocking, rockwork, and return pump but all 4 should be plenty.
