General Aquarium Circulation Question

[JimmyOrangeSeed]

So, my Koralia 750 ate the dust. Pretty sad because it was only about 1.5 years old. I am looking at buying something because other than my return from my sump, I don't have any other flow. I want to greatly increase my flow, even more than what I had before my pump burned out.

My question is: Should I go with two 750 Koralia's or should I just buy one that is much larger?

My tank is 75g, mixed reef, no sand.

I like 2 on opposing sides with a wave maker. Or you could bite the bullet and get an MP10 or 40

I would LOVE a wavemaker but just don't have the $$$$ for one atm. Once my wife graduates from med school

I bought a used one for $40

I just put an mp40 on my 72g tank and I have to say, it's totally awesome. Totally worth it IMO.

IMO, two seperate pumps. Easier to create a random and chaotic flow to minimize dead spots and hit evry area of the tank.

I think it depends on what you're trying to accomplish. More pumps help creat more flow in different areas, giving you more of an "ocean" type of feel IMO.
