Jebao pp-4 or PP-8?

I am thinking of adding a pair of these to a 75 gallon, 4' tank. Tank is a mixed reef, mostly SPS. Anyone have experience with them? Think I should get the pp-8s instead?

With a 4' tank I would go with the pp 8's. I have the 4's on my 40 breeder which is 3' long & they are perfect so with a 75 I think the 8's would be better. I had a 8 in my 40 breeder & it worked fine but it was a little to strong to run in else mode which is the mode I like to use. In else mode it ramps from low to high so u can't adjust the flow on it. If u want to use it in that mode u have to be careful not to oversize or u will have to run it it wave mode so u can adjust the flow.

I would still go with the 8's on a 75 though because I don't think 2 4's will be quite enough, especially for sps.

2 x PP8 would be perfect on that tank

Thanks for the replies. I think I will try the 8s.
