GPH in 25 Gallon tank

[carterpaules]

HI I have 2 XF250 Gyre Pump rated at 5300 GPH.
I have a 25 lagoon tank, could this much flow cause any complications?

Thanks

What kind of corals do you want to keep?

It depends on you corals and aqua scape. If you keep sps you may want higher flow.

I believe you can control the speed on those pumps so you can have it low now and raise it if corals grow and begin to Block flow.

I have a 25 g with 2 Nero 5 and 1 Icecap 2k gyre which would be about 8000gph at 100%. But my corals are all frag sized so I have them all around 50-60%
