Best power head option for LPS lagoon tank

[Jimbo662]

Tank will be 36"x24"x12". My initial thought was a pair of MP10WQD. Wondering if they'll be enough to provide nice flow all over the tank. I'd prefer to stay with something to keep wires out of the tank.

I think you may want three.

Use two or three Turbelle® nanostream® 6040's instead? Or in combination?

I'd actually asked a question on BRS about the 6040's. I'd rather stick with the vortechs so there are no cords in the tank.

I do like the mp10 – especially since you already have them! – so don't get me wrong.

But sometimes that can be a lot to pay for what amounts to a minor aesthetics point. At new prices, one mp10w costs the same as two 6040's.

I wish I already had them...gotta buy all new.
