A mag 24 will not even come close to reproducing the natural level of flow in a 150 gal tank. If you have been swimming in a reef area there is a heck of a current, one that moves 1000's of gallons a second. we don't even come close to the flow nature has in our tanks. but there is a difference, depending how you set up that flow it could be to concentrated and I think that is what you are getting confused with, in nature it is a huge dispersed flow so it feels gentle, but if you use power heads you have a pinpoint flow that is hard in one spot and none in the others. I know I have been carried back and forth about 25 feet in a couple seconds by the currents on a reef so that not a low flow.

Nice post Steve, I was just waiting for you to chime in. Adaboy!!
Hey Steve, are you using those Seio PH's. What's your opinion of them?
