My SPS are ok...growing, and halfway colored (like some are green on top, brown underneath which makes me think flow). My params are good. Here is my current setup in my 118 gal half circle:
Lighting: 1x400w 14k SPS (southern pacific sun) MH, 4x36w T5 - various brands, 3 actinic, 1 10k
Flow: Mag 9.5 return, 2xTunze 6045s (no mod), 1 Seio 820 hidden under the rocks
I have played around and given my hood and eurobracing, I'm not sure how I can fit more lighting (have the one 400w MH in the middle and 4x36 T5s behind it). Need the MH to penetrate 30" but can't figure out how I'd fit 2 without blocking my canopy access or having them over my glass eurobracing. So I'm hoping its flow. I was thinking of adding a couple Tunze 6025s and modding them as a cheap solution to get things moving around, or biting the bullet for a 6100 (altho would prefer not to due to size, power consumption, etc.).
Here's a schematic of the tank so you can see what I'm dealing with:
