Well I'm about a month away from finally getting my 375gal tank (96"X36"X25") up and running. I'll be concentrating on SPS. I'd like to run it w/o a CL. What do you Tunze experts think - would a 2500 gal per hour return and four 6201s on a 7095 be sufficient?

Tom, i think that is enough but you can always add tunze waveboxes to help with the flow...

Agreed on what Steve said.

Hopefully not taking the thread off track but Steve have you tried the wave in your tank with just two pumps? If so how does it compare to all 4?

Shawn, i have try 2 pumps in the tank and i get approx 2" of wave which is very decent for that size tank. I chose to do all 4 because Roger think i am crazy :D.

People can get away with just 2 pumps for that size tank without problem. My friend Chris (REEFKOI) has two in his 600g tank and he is happy with the wave...
