Adding Pumps to Display Tank - Seeking Advice

[Hair Algae Wizard]

Folks,

Looking for opinions/feedback on additional pumps for my Waterbox 7226. Currently I have 2 MP40QD's on the left side of the tank, and a single MP60QD on the right side. My tank is SPS dominant, and I feel like I don't have enough flow, and have some dead spots. I tried a few Gyre 4K pumps from Icecap, which in all candor were garbage, and stopped working over time.

I was thinking maybe 1 additional MP60 on the right side, or 2 MP40's along with the MP60 on the right side, but open to suggestions. The tank is 6' long (210 gallons)

Cheers!

To be honest your probably fine as you are, but you can also check out the ecotech web site, there’s a flow calculator on there

In my large system (530g) I just have an MP60 at each end and MP40 in the middle and it’s fine

But it’s all personal preference and your hobby, so if it makes you happier go for it.

These reef tanks are all about staring at them and enjoying them, so if somethings annoying you, fix it.
