Recommendation for a 90 gallon

[pgordemer]

Looking for a recommendation for powerheads for a 90 Gallon Tank. Converting from FOWLR to Reef with 2 in sandbed. Will be easy corals and muchrooms. Standard 48x18x24 size with RR overflow just left of middle.

I Looked at the 6000, but I have to belive that is way too much flow.

What model, how many and position. (Was thinking 1 in each back corner pointed towards the front center and slightly towards the surface to not have a sandstorm.

Thoughts, Ideas, comments??

Do you plan to have sps corals, what kind of corals you want makes a big difference of what you need.

I've just started my 90g (48x18x24), and I have two 6000 hooked up to a 7095.

I used Aragalive special grade. Anything less will be blown around.

I will send pix as soon as I learn how to do that on this forum.

At this stage, I will be doing easy care corals and mushrooms. I do have good lighting as I plan for the future (384 PC and 150 HQI)

I don't expect to be having any corals that need HIGH movement, and I also intend to have reef safe fish, so I don't want to have to get a surfboard for the poor fish.
