Is this too much flow for SPS. I’m using two Icecap 1k Gyres connected with the Icecap Gyre Dual Pump WiFi controller. One pump is at ramps up to 60% and then the other pump ramps up to 50%. The preset is Sine Wave,Speed Range 0-100%, duration 50min. With the return pump I think this comes to around 1275gph. It’s a 40 gallon tank.

The picture show the direction of the flow.

You can definitely have too much flow - this is not a measuring contest like some people think that it is. However, if the Euphilya are still out and happy, then you do not have too much... the LPS will get mad before the SPS will.
