Currently running a IM Nuvo 40. I have an MP10wQD running in it right now at reefcrest mode, but I am trying to get more random turbulent flow as I am attempting SPS this time around. Would 2 MP10's be overkill in this tank? Any suggestions?

What are the dimensions? I have two in a 36 bowfront, it's fine, they max out around 70% each

DImensions are 24x20x19.

How do you have them placed? Directly in front of each other or offset?

one on each side, one offset to front and one offset to back

same height on the offset? I guess it really depends on rockwork though

I too have 2 mp10s in my 24x24x20 and have thought about adding a gyre too.

I personally would get an MP40 and run it at lower intensity. Ive ran smaller tanks and also got the MP10's, but later down the line, if you go with a bigger tank, youll run accross the glass thickness problem with the 10's. The Mp40's also provide wider flow which could improve the movement in the tank also
