I'm about to order some equiptment for my 120 gal. ( 48x24x24 ) fw tank that I am coverting to a fowlr. I was thinking 2 hydor 1150's. would that be enough or would I need a pump or two for surface agitation? there will be no sump for now and a hob skimmer. I plan on 100 lbs. of dry rock and some live to seed it. probably two or three islands for swimming room.

Flow all depends on what u are planing on keeping. here is a general guide i wrote a while back it should help you determine the right conditions.

i recently replaced my korilla pumps with Jebeo wp40. maybe give it thought. It's somewhat the same as the echotech mp40 ...its quite cheaper than mp40.
