2 big pump on closed loops , I dont see spending the money on tunze. You still get the powerhead look .

I would get 2 6100 Streams and use Interval 2 on the controller, this should cover the whole tank.

Brad, Closed loops cost every bit as much especially with two big pumps and you have no control options and use easily 5 times as much electricity.

Maybe, every system is different, in my tanks I would prefer the Streams or powerheads in general because they use less power and you can change things later with greater ease.
