Wow. I put this put in the top right back corner by the return for the filter system, and this thing rocks. It is borderline too much power. You have to aim it just right so the water does not overflow over the side of the tank, and so it does not move too much sand. But this is sweet. All my fish love it, they love to swin in a current this strong. And the corals are growing even faster, (They sway back and forth too!). I had a single small torch coral in my tank that was introduce the same time as the pump, and in 4 days it split into 2 large heads. I did not know coral can grow that fast. My Hammer coral also doubled in size and I have never seen my chili coral so happy. He eats every night now.
I highly recommend this as a mod. IT IS A LOT OF FLOW. You wil have 50X turnover. But it is great, I have no cyanoo bacteria, and way less algae growth (I only need to clean the glass every 4 days now). And because tunze runs with such low wattage. Heat is no loger a isue in my tank. I leave all the lids closed and my heater is what controls my temp, not my pumps.Way better than fudging around with a pathetic lclosed loop that Never works right anyway, and always has to be primed.
Give it a go.
