Which wp pump for a 40 breeder?

[J.guokas]

I'm going to be upgrading to a 40 breeder pretty soon and was wondering which wp pump would be best for me. Was also wondering if it would be better to do two wp10's instead of just one of the larger ones. Any recommendations are really appreciated.

2x wp-10's and 1x wp-25

Forgot to mention I have my mp10 that I was planning on running on the back wall.

hmmmm that adds a curveball.... no clue maybe just 1x wp-10 and 1x wp-25?

1 wp25 will be more than enough on medium setting our 2 wp10s

When is the next time you are doing an order?

I have a 25 on my 75 g and it moves a lot of water. I'd say with an mp10 and a wp10 you would be pretty good

I'm setting up a 40 gallon breeder right now and got one WP 25, don't have water in the tank yet but can't imagine I will need any other power heads in the tank, one WP 40 made a huge wave in my 180

+1 I also have a wp25 on my 75g and it moves a ton of water the 40 I originally bought literally blew water out if my tank! I have a wp10 on my 29 gallon and it is to much flow by itself so I have to run it at 75%. I think you would be best with the wp10 especially if you plan on running the mp10 in there with it. HTH

I agree with the WP10 + MP10 combo. Although my flow is lightly supplemented by a closed loop, the 2x MP10s and a WP10 supply plenty flow on my 85g cube. I tested the WP10 on my 20 long and had it running under 50% and was happy with the flow

I'm thinking I might do 2 wp10s and the mp10 on the back wall. If it's too much I'll take one out of the mix. I just want really good random flow in the tank cause I plan on doing a lot of sps.
