I'm in the planning/gathering parts stage of my tank upgrade. It is a 210g, 7x2x2' with corner overflows. I will be utilizing a closed loop on this in addition to my vortechs for flow. The closed loop pump is a Sequence Barracuda and I am going to use 3 (maybe 4) seaswirls.

Questions:

1.) To feed the pump how many holes, what size and where should I drill them?

2.) What size seaswirls? 3/4 or 1''?

would say 2 x 2" 1/4 way down outputs depend on how many you plan on having.

I plan on using 3 seaswirls. How much flow can each one handle?
