I am using 2 X 2200L at the Top right hand corner.

I directed the PH towards the front and back of the aquarium glass.

It helps me to reduce algae growth as well.

But I feel it is too strong for my LPS.

SO there are pros and cons.

Thought of going for Tunze stream but I am afraid it will create havoc to the water.

i using 2 tunze in my 4 feet tank

I using 2x6010 in 4ft. So far no havoc in fact I feel like not enuff current so going to add one 6100 soon. Really regret never go with 2x6100 since the price is a little bit more only.

Thanks guys... a tunze is a bit out of budget right now... it will be on my To Save For list. But for now will go for 2 powerheads, just like Sugi.

For a 4X2X2, you might want to run 4 phs, each at each corner blasting along the front and rear walls. That should provide circulation and minimize dead spots in the tank. I am not sure if you would like to hook them on timers, so you get a variation of flow- 1st hour left PH, 2nd hour right PH, 3rd hour all PH.
