A Vortex MP40 draws 28w at 3200gph. The Quiet one 9000 is 145w for 2328gph then you'll still have friction losses. Would it be enough for a 180g, seems on the low end if planning SPS. See this thread for an idea of what other people have.

People are suggesting I get two MP40s for my 90 instead of just one, so I would think you'd need two for sure in a 180.

You would need at least 2 in a 180. I have 2 in my 6' 125G and wouldn't mind another.
