koralia question

[split4161]

i have a 30 gallon tank and i want to make it a reef tank...my tank is still cycling and i have 1 koralia 1, is that enough for a reef tank?

[super stooge]

how many gallons per hour does the koralia 1 push?

[split4161]

400gph

most people recommend around about 20x turn over in a tank, though you must consider what your going to be stocking when deciding your tanks flow rate. the "average" 20x turnover in your tank equates to 600gph

i had a koralia 1 and 2 on my 55 gallon as well as the mag 5 for my return pump and it wasnt enough. i was cheap and i just modded a rio 1700 and that works alot better. i would reccomend a tunze or if u wanna go cheaper get a maxijet 1200 and get a mod for it.

I have a k3 on my 30 gal and its excellent. I get lots of surface turbulance and it doesn't stir up the substrate
