recommendations

Roger which streams would you recommend for a 135 gallon (72" x 18" x 22) mixxed reef (SPS/clams/ricordia/zoos/shrooms)? I was thinking about getting (2) 6000s.

Also is there an advantage to having the streams on one multicontroller vs having 2 seperate single controllers? It is cheaper for me to get 2 stream 6000 with single controller packages than to buy 2 6000s and the multicontroller.

Two 6000 Streams would be the best in my opinion. I have come to prefer the multicontroller because it is more verstile and better able to coordinate the action of the two pumps. The Single controller can give you a more chaotic flow as both units would essentially work in random. The added feature of Tide Mode where one pump is off when the other is on can be useful if you find both pumps to be too much.

Thanks for the quick reply and the advice.
