My tank that I got from a friend of mine is an all-glass 120g with a 17g wet/dry. I am looking into upgrading the wet/dry to a 30 or larger soon. It now has the flexible connections and I was going to run PVC instead to it. It only has return pump that does 650gph rate and that is only 5 turnovers per hour. I was looking at the mag 12, splitting it off to 2 return outlets up top facing the opposite corners, and making both of the holes in the tank drains. He had it set up for the left is the return and the right is the drain. There is waste all over the rocks and I can't seem to beat it with constant water changing and siphoning it off the rocks. I was looking at a few wavemakers but have plenty of pumps already in the tank (4~Corialia 4's and 2~300gph powerheads). Would the return pump and PVC make a big enough difference that my wallet can save on not getting the wavemaker?
It would be being pumped up 54 inches, too.
Thanks!
