I upgraded my powerhead from a Koralia 1 to a koralia 3. My question is should I use both and where should I place the 3 and 1 if I use both? Here are a few pics of my setup now.

The tank is a corner so its a pain in the butt. Heres a FTS with my rock setup everything is the same except the powerhead to the left.

Id hide the bigger one in the back corner, and put the smaller one where the powerhead is.

If you could, put them on a reverse schedule, where when one is on the other is not, and vise versa.

That way you would have random flow in two directions.

good luck, looking good so far!!

So using both wouldn't be a over kill? thanks for the reply

Not overkill unless you plan to keep low flow corals. Put the 3 in the back corner and the 1 just below the filter on that powerhead .

I would like to have a few sps, zoas, and some other stuff. I will put the pump in tonight and see if I need more or not.

thanks again

You need some more flow from your return pump. It looks like there is a bubble forming in the U Tube.
