I have a 46 bow and I'm upgrading to vortechs. Would 2 mp10's be enough or would I have to go with 2 mp20's?

What do you plan on keeping in the tank?

I have 2 10's in my 75 -- opposite sides -- which is providing enough flow for me. The main reason I went with the smaller ones is because of my 2 S. Haddoni anemones, they are not fans of high flow. But, I still am getting enough flow that my SPS (( at the top )) are happy.

Two MP 10's would be fine. I'm using two on a 75Gal and have them turned down some.

I think 20's would be too much for your setup.

I have a 90g... light on rock.. just softies mostly.. U guys with the 4 foot 75g's think the 2 mp10's would still be ok on mine as well (sorry to hijack).

If you have two MP20's, i dont think you can sync them together without buying a wireless upgrade thing. I would stick with the mp10.

i have a mp40 on my 4 foot 75, after a year you can see on the opposite side of the tank, the rocks have stuff on them, more algae on the rocks where water didn't really get to them. Ended up buying an extra mp10 and put it on the opposite wall, problem solved

Let us know how you like the flow of the mp10's I am thinking of getting 2 for my 60 gallon.
