50G Cube Flow Help

[Jefdav84]

Have an SCA 50 Cube tank 24x24x20. I was using a Jebao SOW-8, but i had a mishap where the controller internals got wet, and now it will not function. I had tried this power head in multiple places on the tank and it just never worked out well. I would only have it on about 30% and there was sand flying everywhere. Any lower than 30% and it seemed to not be doing much of anything. So I decided this would be a good time to get some thoughts and recommendations on what I should get. Right now I am keeping Soft and LPS, but may add a few SPS pieces later on.

Would I benefit from more of a cross flow style?

Two power heads positioned a certain way?


Open to all suggestions, Thanks!

Bump for the day crowd.

In my 60g cube I have 2 MP10's on opposite sides of the tank at roughly the same height, but on opposite ends (left side closer to front, right side closer to back). Seems to make a pretty decent flow pattern. For the flow program I have them on opposite patterns alternating between reefcrest & constant speed(50%) most of the day. Disclaimer - my setup is barebottom

Anyone have any thoughts on the following?

Jebao x2 SLW 10 or 20

Jebao x2 Any of the PP, RW, OW, SOW series

Jebao cross flow

Wondering what the best flow would be out of these
