[som857ee]

Im planing a 80 cm long 65 wide and 55 high aquarium what will be the best solution for my tank a 2 mp10 or 2 mp40 i am not want to be limited with coral type i will appreciate any kind of help for my tank flow

With that tank size, I would go with the two MP40's if you want the most flexibility in your scape and placement of corals.

I have 2 MP-10s. They were not enough flow for my 56 gallon 76 cm long x 46 wide x 60 high.
I have 2 XF230 maxspect Gyres, a Jebao PP-15 and one of the MP-10s in it right now.

I know you are right but its all about the money so i hope that 2 mp10 will be good enough but i think its not the right way to grow corals

I'm guessing you've considered it but if money is a consideration, perhaps consider a brand like Tunze or something. Still reputable just not the highest priced item in its category.

Good luck!

I just love&admirer ecotech marine products

80cm which is about 32 inches.
As long as the glass is the proper thickness the 2 mp 10s will be fine.
I have 2 gyre xf230 on a 120cm tank. I like the gyres but the vortech pumps are great - require less cleaning and ecotech support is much better than coralvue's

R u sure? I also want sps

Then get the MP40s and run them lower - they will last longer that way. Also no cords in the tank.
Gyres require more cleaning and the cleaning process is more work.

2 MP40s will give you the most options and you won't have to run them at 100%. I have a 50g cube that had 2 MP10s and didn't think it was enough flow

Why not go with one mp40 at the moment and add a 2nd one later on?

It's not like having the 2nd mp40 is going to make or break growing corals.

And if money is an issue, you could also run a closed loop pump. A decent pump with an outlet timer that goes on and off multiple times a day.

I like ecotech products too, but the price keeps me away.

How much discount do you get? Is better be more than 10%

 

[som857ee]

Maybe

Using the dimensions you listed here is what ecotechs flow calculator recommended.

2 mp10 or 2 mp40 vote now

 

[Skep18]

I'm not sure what answer you're looking for. It sounds like you want 2 MP40's and nothing else will do. Yet you can't afford 2 MP40's... Are you wanting someone on here to give you a few hundred $$$?

Got 2 MP40 only running ~40% in 75g
Please consider the thickness of you aquarium glass if you’re going with MP10
