pump suggestions

Would a pair of 6085's be overkill for a standard 125g? Only other flow is a mag 18, but it doesn't provide a whole lot of pressure because of the way it's plumbed.

Is it the 72 * 18 * 21 125?

What type of corals do you keep?

Those are the correct dimensions.

Corals will be LPS, softies and schrooms for now. SPS after I do a lighting upgrade.

6085 might be too much, the flow covers an area of 5ft by 2ft roughly and it could be an issue with stirring up the sand and too strong near the pumps. I think 2 6065 or best of all 2 6105 so you can adjust them as needed is the way to go.

Thanks

A pair of the smaller pumps it is.
