2 Mp 10s Vs 1 MP 40 in a 220G

[Hokies83]

I donno which would be better the one MP40 or 2 MP 10s facing each other on each end of the tank.

I like the Idea that the MP10s/40s shoot a wide angle into the water instead of the concentrated angle of all other power heads....

But boy to the cost alot of money....

Neither option will be enough... maybe two mp40s would... but two mp10s won't be close to enough imo

i have some other units a Tunze and some korillia's

Do WP heads shoot a Wide flow like the MP's or a narrow flow like normal wave makers?

I have 2 mp40s facing each other on a 210 and it is not enough. I need at least one more mp40

I run a MP10 Full Blast Reef Crest Mode on my 29G Biocube. They are impressive but not really for a 210. I would say two MP60s would be ideal. But Money can be a huge factory in that.

2xmp40's is what i'm going to run on a 210 gallon. I think the glass is to thick for mp10's....

I ordered 2 WP 40s after watching them in action on another 220G

it only had 2 WP 40s on it and the whole tank had flow top to bottom.

what is "enough"...

that said, yeah 1 MP40 probably won't be enough. With next to no rock structure, it may get water moving around enough for a low energy system, but I run 2 MP40s and a MP60 on my 180 tank.
