which stream?

[Canadian Man]

I am setting up a 230 6x2x30". I have a closed loop on the tank with 1500gph to 4 outlets as well as the sump return.

can I get away with 2 6060's or are the 6080's nessecary?

Thanks for any insight.

The 6060 is quite small- for 3-4ft area- I would use 6080.

Thanks, when you say small do you mean the distance that the water fans out at or the distance it will reach before the flow dramaticaly decreases?

Thanks

sorry dbl post.

Do to the large diameter and low pressure a 6060 is only capable of 3-4ft of carry of the flow. A 6080 is good for 5-6ft.
