Hi, I've got a custom 90g that's 72"L x 12"W x 24"H. It's a mixed reef, but mostly SPS. Anyway, my question is should I go with 2 6101's with the multi or would 2 6000's with a multi be enough?

Thanks!

Anybody got any advice?

Does anyone know why they stopped making the 6000's?

They consolidated the line making the 6101 the replacement for the 6000 and 6100. It was dont when the electronics of the driver were put into the pump and the transformer was replaced by a laptop style power supply. It was done for a few reasons one of the big ones was to speed up production.

2 6101s would be plenty of flow or you could go with maybe 3 6055s for about the same price, actually cheaper since you would not need magnets to mount them if you desired.
