Need recomendation for small tank

[savethereef]

Hey guys im looking for recommendation from guys who actually have nano tanks for this one. I currently have a Fluval M90 with tank dims
(L x W x H): (35.4 X 16.5 X 15.7 IN)
Since this is a All in one the true dims of the display is about 35x12x15
So i wanted to get a MP10QD or a MP40QD

For a tank this size i only want to go with one pump. Which one would be better? I plan to keep SPS mostly.

Currently i run two 6155 from my 500g that i move to this one.
They are so strong of coarse that i changed the jumper from 18V to 12V to reduce the power. But they are so big i want something smaller profile.

If you can post a video of your MP10 on a tank with similar dims so i can see how it works.

tks

I would go with one MP40 and one MP10, but you may be able to get away with one 40.

I would run one mp40 and just turn it down if it's too strong. I'm using a tunze 6055 and 6040 and they are creating a sandstorm in my 24x14x16 nano tank. I have a spare 6055 if you want to test out. I live on the next street over from you too.

Oh cool thanks really nice of you. But looking to go with the MP series.
On my end i dont have a sandstorm. I have great flow its just really unsightly to see these huge power heads in my tank.

A gyre would work well on that as well.

Go with the mp10, mp40 might be too strong. You ll end up dialing the pump all the way down n not b able to use all the features in the pump.

My thoughts as well. You beat me to it

I know what you mean, but I have no choice since my nano tank is 3/4" thick on all the walls I have my mp10 being use in my sump haha

I just broke my wet side dropping it after a vinegar bath. I do have a replacement new wet side I'm waiting for to arrive from BRS end of the week though. Me and mp10s don't get along. This is my 2nd one I dropped and broke. [emoji21]
