flow for 37 gallon

[NanoReefer]

would two 1300 gph powerheads be too much for my 37 gallon, i saw on ebay two for 25 with free shipping...

IMO,no.
I always say that as long as the sands not in suspension,then you DON'T have too much flow.

Im with Yote, thats a wee bit too much flow for a 37.
I would probably only order them for a 70G up

I think you misunderstood my post.:D
I DON'T think it'll be too much flow.:Cheers:

Oh :? I guess i did!! Hahahahahahahahahaha
What a dummy I am!! :D
Then i have to disagree with Yote!! Hehehehe :p
But then again, if sand aint flying then its fine!!

Well i have one 750 in my 32, thats on the verge of shifting my sand. I would use the 1300 for breaking surface

for such a cheap price i would get them just to have a few extra powerheads around

In my 125,I had 4 of the K-4s 4 K-3s 3K-2s and a couple of other mix and matched power heads.:D Of course when you put that much flow in a tank,you have to be extremely careful about where you place your corals.

That much flow depends on what type of corals you want to keep...only sps's like a whole lotta flow. Like lil fish stated, you could get them and use only one, and have the other one for backup.

guy at my fishstore told me for most corals i'd need about 25 turnover a hour
he did sum math and told me
29gallon times(x) 25turnover = 725gph
i dont know if this is right but it sounded right to me
idk why people say so much
