ok, i need to charge the camera. For water movement i will have
2 seios either 620 or 820 i think 2 620. I will also have my return pump at 750 gph at 4 head. what is eveyones oppinion. would 2 maxi jet 1200s work. The lfs guy reccomended it. (I know not to trust him but he has great set ups)

Thanks

Maxis for the return? That probably won't work. Go with a mag drive 7 or 9.5

 

[FishMachine]

no, i have maxis for powerhead. i have a rio 14 for my return.

Thanks

or mabey a couple tunze nanostream 6045s

 

[FishMachine]

or a couple Turbelle Stream 6060. what do you think about my rio return. keep it or toss it? is it loud?

 

[FishMachine]

anyone

I love my maximods...I like my mag return too, rios haven't lasted the longest for me

 

[FishMachine]

ya, i think ill switch to a mag. my overflow is 900 gph, so i will go with the md 7. maybe ill go with the hobby pump 898 gph, or the quiet one 3000 at 780 gph. what about the tunzes- nano or regular?

Thanks

[FishMachine]

ill go with 2 tunze nanos. enough flow for sps?

Thanks
FishMacine

 

[FishMachine]

if not, ill go with 1 turbell 6060 and 1 seio

 

[msuzuki126]

The more flow the better for SPS. The nanos probably wouldn't cut it.

 

[FishMachine]

ok
