Powerhead For A 150G Tank?

[simonas]

As you know cos I ain;t shut up about it I;m setting my 150g tank up in to a FOWLR.

Clearly live rock will displace a lot of the volume of water.

I want and will need a decent flow.

Would a Koralia evo 5200 be enough flow or should I get two smaller powerheads... maybe Koralia evo 4000s one at each end to create more flow

Thanks Simon

I would always go for at least 2 mate. I know it means having to bits of bulky kit in the tank but it does work a lot better as it creates random flow, helps to stop deadspots in the flow and if one of the pumps should happen to fail you will still be able to get by with just the one.

cheers for that I;ve decided to go for the two Koralia evo 4000's
