Can a 6100 go into a 90gal?

[keithttan]

I already have a 6000 running in my 36x24x24, but want to add another. Planning to go full sps, and I am considering a 7095 with either another 6000 or 6100. Which would you suggest? I recently rescaped to have vey open space between rocks, and hope to place the stream midway in the tank's height, resting on some tonga branches, so the streams will be directed into the "valleys". I am inclined to go with the 6100 owing that I can tune them down, but not sure if you would advice otherwise.

If you get the 6000 and decide you need to upgrade the transformer is only 60.00. Also make sure the stream is east to remove as you need to clean it every 3 months. I have a 6000 on a multicontroller in my 58(36x18x21) and a MJ1200 and I think another 6000 would be too much. My mille polyps are flying around as is with 40-45x turnover on a pulse.

I like JVHams advice- go with the 6000 to start.

I have two 6100's on my cube tank, 30x30x27. I put both at the top of my tank and it works great. The top of my tank is mostly sps and i have a few zoo's and rics in the valley's of the live rock. I also purchased the magnet holders and they are awsome. makes it easy to clean the glass.

HTH,
