Hey everyone.
This is my first large powerhead. I plan on running a mixed reef with the majority being softys and euphillia. There will be some SPS and a RBTA.
I just put my new MP40 quiet drive in and the thing RIPPPPPPPSSS water around.
I set it to max at 40% and it pushes a ton of water. I feel like its too much for my torch which is next to the mp40 but more off to the right. I dont really want to move the pump either but i think thats just inevitable
Reason i dont want to move it is because my RBTA is right next to where Id put the MP40 and i dont want it to move...
Can anyone share what they run theirs at? Im also not sure what modes to run. With the reeflink i really want to tweak the crap out of my tank to get the best random-ness i can.
Current setup is
lagoon in the AM @ 20%
reef crest in the afternoon @ 30%
lagoon in the later afternoon @ 20%
then night mode
Seems like decent flow but again i think i could do more but my torch would be in a hurricane
