What's your mixed reef MP40 settings?

[KRas1014]

So I have an INT100 tank; measures 48X24X20. Currently have 2 MP40's on opposite ends of the tank running the following settings as shown in the pic. Also, I have about 500 GPH running from the return in the sump. Is this enough flow for SPS acro's to thrive, or should it be higher? Any higher than this it blows the sand all around from the middle of the tank and covers some corals in sand. I appreciate any suggestions and seeing what everyone else is running!

Everyone’s tank and rockwork are different.

I have a 145g tank, with 2 Koralia’s for lighter flow on one side, and 6 MP40’s (4 on back, 2 on one end)

only 4/6 are Wireless, so I really don’t know the settings on the other 2

Wow 6 MP40's is quite a lot of flow! Are you running bare bottom? Is this a mixed reef tank or pretty much all acro's?

I’m aquascaping an IM-150 INT right now and it sounds like we have very similar setups. 2 MP-40s and a sand bottom. Following along....

I initially had the peaks in the 70-80% but it really seemed like even the acros werent very happy and the ones closest to the powerheads completed stopped showing PE and 1 actually started to STN on the side facing the powerhead. Plus, I always had a giant bald spot in the front center of the tank so I turned it down the settings as shown in my image. Just curious of what the experience reefers would consider "high flow" and what should be needed,

May I ask what power level setting you are using for reef crest and export?
