I am looking at picking up two new powerheads for added flow. I have been looking at the Koralia's for more dispersed flow and would like the clubs opinion. For my 90 gallon, would you recommend 2 #2's each moving 600gph, or 2 #3's each moving moving 850gph? I will continue to use two of my maxijet 900's on the sides but lower to help fill in any dead spots, and will relocate my 3rd MJ900 to my sump, for water movement and mixing of supplements in the return pump chamber.

Thanks
 
im not sure if u have a reef tank or not but if u do or plan to get one definately the 3s if u have no interest what so ever u can get by with the 2s but id still go with the 3s if it fits in ur budget
 
Andy, definately go with the 3s. You may not even need to use both of the other power heads if you go bigger. Remember I have 2 Sieo in my 65 and it was all I needed. Remember over a period of time you will lose some flow because of calcium and algae buildup on and in the pumps. If you go bigger you won't have to worry so much about cleaning them all the time to compensate for lost flow.
If you are interested I think the deal I had with someone to buy my Sieos may have fell through.
