Need help: 120g setup

[Cody00SS]

I am planning a 72"x18"x23" with a possible DSB. I am looking into getting the 6000 with a controller for my wakemaker. I would like to keep SPS, Clams, and anenomes mostly.

Will one of these pumps be enough? Or will it be too much?

What are your recommendations?

Thanks for the help.

The 6000's flow only carries 48". I would get the 6000 Stream but you will have to supplement it on the far side. My personal recommedation is to get the 6000 Stream for one side and a 7400/2 for the other and then have a good return flow from the sump. The side with Stream should be predominantly SPS, keep the anemones toward the other end and get an accesory intake extension with a T and a second strainer. This will hide the intake which will be 14" wide and Teed just above the substrate under the rock structure. This makes it virtually anemone proof as the intake is very diffuse and hard to get to.
