Interesting. Maybe I'll give that a shot.

Currently have both horizontal, one at overflow end at about 40% short pulses, and the other end at 60% constant. Some lesser flow area still, but my tank doesn't have SPS at the moment.

new treasures, has been a fruitfull weekend(mon/tues) found a huge tube anenome, a leopard wrasse and super thin pavona coral (similar to ORA's mint pavona) i think its a pavona frondifera or potato chip coral. hope it colours nicely..

ok so eventually i will want to cram more fish in here, so i need a bigger skimmer. So i got an external and tee'd off of my return, should be good with both skimmers for a 450 gallon heavy load tank. im pretty sure i dont have to worry about skimming anymore..

im wondering how much direct sunlight is bad for coral and tank, besides algae what problems could arrise? About 45 mins per day on half the tank.
