Need advice on Tunze Stream fo 75 Gallon

[woven1web]

Hi all,

I have a 75 gallon reef tank with the following:

Large Hairy Mushroom
Kenya Tree
Red Mushrooms
Blue Mushroom
Leather Coral
Green Star polyps
yellow polyps
Bubble tip anemone


Yellow Tang
Six Line Wrasse
Reef Basslet
3 damsels
small sea hare
2 cleaner shrimps
2 emerald crabs
1 Sebae clown

I just upgraded my lighting to the Current USA Outer Orbit, and I want to start keeping hard corals like acroporas. I am looking at the following to put in my system to replace my current powerheads:
Turbelle Stream Kit TS21 which has the following:

2 Turbelle Stream 6000 + Multicontroller 7095

I have approximately 2 inch sand bed also... Would that be too much flow for what I currently have and what I want to add.

Its a pretty good chunk of change so I want to make sure that I make the right decision before purchasing one.

Also, my tank is not a drilled tank so I do not have a sump and an overflow box, will this be a problem?

Thanks!

I running 2 6000s on the 7095 multicontroller. Works out great for my tank. I have a snnd bed and don't have a problem with sand storms. It might be a little much for some of the corals you listed. It will work but you might have to do a little rearranging of your rock work with the Kenya tree coral. My tank is predominantly sps and the corals love the flow.

As rbonick said but also keep in mind these pumps aren't anemone safe so if he stays put you will be OK but they do pose a risk.

Well I took the plunge and bought the Turbelle Stream Kit TS21.. Its on back order so it will be approx. 3 weeks until I receive it.

From what I have read so far it appears that I made the right choice.. I was toying with the SEIO 850 but decided to take the full plunge and get a TUNZE...

I'm running 1 - 6100 + multi-controller. On my 75g, all seems well, good flow, good motion, along with other system filters and such. I have it aimed to the front glass slightly.
