Friends,

I could use your advice. I'm getting the Reefer 250 and wondered if I should get the Nero 3's or Neros 5's?

Thanks!

Nero-5.

My Reefer-250 is a barebottom. I run an MP40, a Nero5, 2 Jebaos and 1 maxpsect Gyre.

really depends on what you want to keep, how much live rock you have etc. But surely go with Nero-5 at the least.
 
Deep,

Thank you for your response. Can you elaborate on why you suggest the Nero 5? How strong are you running the Nero 5? What is the gph your running?

Thanks!

i run mine at 100 percent at night and 75% during the day. And that gives me enough flow from one side till about 3/4ths of the tank.
I keep an SPS dominant tank with a barebottom - so I need good flow end to end.

Again it depends on what you want to keep. If its just softies then maybe nero-3s will work. But anything else I would go with nero-5s.
