I just purchased one of the new Aqueon 60 breeder tanks to start a build to get back into the hobby after a long break. Given the newness of these tanks there is extremely limited information out so far to see what has worked for others. Therefore, I am looking for advice on which powerheads would serve my needs the best.

Tank dimensions are 48" L x 18" W x 16" H. Tank will only be stocked with soft corals, LPS, and gorgonians. Tank will be drilled and have a single return.

I am currently considering the following:
2 x AI Nero 5
2 x Tunze 6095
?

I am open to any suggestions or feedback anyone would like to provide. Thanks in advance!
 
Thanks, I'm leaning that way right now. I figured there would be some sales this weekend, but 4th of July is close and bet I will get them on sale then.

I set up a 60 breeder recently and I'm using 2 IceCap 4k's and 2 Sicce SDC powerheads and I have been really happy with the flow. I am incredibly happy with the gyre style powerheads because it can be tricky to get the right flow pattern in a 4ft breeder.
