Nice tank and great job Mellow! :bow::bow::bow:

Btw, may I know what is the flowrate of your return? Seems like you only have a Rio 820 for circulation - is it enough? ;) Cuz, I am thinking of increasing my flow in order to accomodate sps. ;)

Hi Gouldian,

Nope, if you look carefully enough, you'll find another powerhead on the top left hand corner of my tank. hehe. took the photos such that they dun look too obvious :) My powerhead's about 1000l/h, M620 about 2400l/h and return pump about 1500l/h. Total flow about 4900l/h for a 30 gallon. So I think should be enough for my tank...

Oh yah, now I see it. ;)

For me my return is 2700l/h, I have a 820 at the lower portion of my 3ft tank to create circulation and another 2 x 620 at the higher opposing part of my tank to create higher flow. Do you think it is sufficient?

I am thinking of removing 1 x 620 and replace it with a Tunze. ;)

I think that's enough flow. Maybe others can give some comments too. Some might feel it is too little or too much.

DB and Creetin: Thanks for the encouraging comments guys!... Creetin, still owe you one for your very nice purple monti. Growing very well so far.
