Well, I'll tell you what I have for water flow now:
I have 4 1" Seaswirls. One is plumbed to the return and is pushing about 1000 GPH. The other three are plumbed to a closed loop on an Ampmaster 3600 and are pushing about 1000 GPH through each. This is all I've had for about the last 4 months. In the last week I've added two of the Ecotech Vortechs to really try and jack the flow. They're each running at full out which is about 3000 GPH each. I would imagine this should be more than enough for a 180G tank. Since I've only been running it with this much flow for less than a week, could that be the problem or should corals start to respond to the high flow almost right away?
