30g (24 x 18 x 18) tank SPS Dedicated
2 x modified Tunze Nanostreams at ~ 1200GPH each
1 x Vortech MP20 at ~2000GPH (when at max flow)
1 x return at ~ 200GPH
Grand total: 4600GPH for 153 x turnover
The other day I decided this was too much flow as I watched my m. digitatas grow downwards and most of my SPS do minimal branching and only encrust. So I unhooked the 2 x Tunze Nanostreams and am just running the return and MP20. Perhaps I'm delusional but I've noticed more branching and, coupled with more actinic and less white lighting, increased coralline algae growth.
