Overkill?
 

I just setup my first 10g nano tank, and have the following:

Subcurrent Surface Skimming/Filter (160 GPH)
Hydor Koralia Nano Powerhead (240 GPH)
Aquaclear Powerhead 802 (400 GPH)

Total of 800 GPH

I am just going overboard?

If I remember correctly, I think the rule of thumb is 40x turnover of your tank volume, so 400gph should be good enough. Especially for a small tank like that, if you have sand, it might blow everywhere.

my 15 gallon has a vortec mp 1o at 1500 gph so i think your ok.

heh..heh i've got a mag drive 12 going full bore on my rsm130d

I would lose the 805 the koraline should be enough.:wink: Depending on what you want to keep.
I run a 3200 +600 on my 75 cube and that is enough to not be able to have LPS my zoe's sure like it though they can't get close enough to the flow.

Thanks for all the responses! This is my first venture into salt water, and so far it has been really enjoyable. I actually took the 802 powerhead out of the tank, found it was very loud, and blew around the live sand too much. Now what to do with this powerhead....I guess I could use it for premixing the salt water before putting into the tank for water changes and top offs.
