6065 in 75g?

[iwishtofish]

Will this pump be too much flow for my 75g tank? I'd place it at one end facing the other, and I'm mainly concerned with the concentrated stream bouncing off the far end and creating a sandstorm. I have medium-grain sand. Thanks

Most of this will depend on placement and amount of rock, it is possible it could be too much. For a 75 the ideal in most case is actually 2 6055 so you can adjust the speed, they are smaller and quieter. If you go with the 6065, you will only want to run one at a time and they cannot be use don a wavemaker or controller but can be switched with a basic timer.
