too much flow?

[thugmebaby]

I took out one of the MJ1200 and replaced with the tunze... so my quesiton is is there such a thing as too much flow? I am using the following:
MJ1200 (thinking of taking out)
Rio 2500 return
Tunze 6100
this is all in my 75 gallon and some corals do not seem to like the tunze's flow. I have it on LOW for total power and the speed on the controller is at the lowest point.

Help for suggestions?

I have a Seio 620 and a Seio 1100 in my 24 gallon. At first i thought it was too much cause my corals were freaking out, but they have seemed to adjust. Even the frogspawn who lives in lagoons has adapted to the water movement. I say as long as your sand isnt in one corner of your tank, you cant have too much. Ive never actually gone diving but i can imagine there is quite a bit of current along the reef.........

I have a total of 6 pumps in my 75, a seio 1500, 1100, 2-820's a rio 2100, a mag 5, and a quiet one 4000 as a return pump....so in short i think you might be ok

I've got a tunze 6000 and it was hard to find a place for it in my tank. If it was in the wrong place it would either blow sand everywhere or it would keep the keep the skim on the water from going down the overflow. Great for sps but any soft corals you have may not like it too much.

Btw, you should crank that tunze up to the max power and set it to alternating speeds to get your money's worth.
