Another MP40 question

[USMA36]

I have a 230 gallon 72x30x24 30” front to back SPS dominant tank. I am using 3 MP40s 2 on the left one on the right. L1 is set to reef crest max 80% R1 is set to child of L1 antisync 80% and R2 is reef crest on its own 80% max. How is this setup? Seems like a lot to me. How do I know when it’s too much flow? I also had a mobius question. What does the MP40 AB+ template do that’s different than reef crest? Thanks again.

It seems like good placement. Whether it's too much or too little flow is really only something you can gauge (at least without a video of the corals).

My tank is less then half your size and I run my MP40s at 38% so you're probably about right with your settings. Mine are 3 inches below the water line. As long as no sand is blowing all over and your corals open up you are probably ok.

Some of the best reefing minds out there say “chaotic” flow rules. Sounds like you’re on it. Flow wise is good for sps. Didn’t see any lps.
