I wouldn't have found this thread if it hadn't been revived... it's been very informative! I'm aiming for an intermittent random flow in my nano, so this thread has been invaluable. Thanks to everyone who put in their 0.02!

2 x 2200 Maxijet Mods - 4400gph
Hydor Koralia4 - 1200gph
Hydor Koralia3 - 850gph
Tunze Nanostream 6045 - 1185gph
Sedra9000 - (after head loss) - 500gph

That's 8135 gph on a 210g mixed reef or about 39 times flow.

I am now at appox. 9500 gph plus the wavebox (not sure how to figure out that water movement).... Running 2 tunze 6105's @ 3434gph each and a dart return at approx 2600 gph. So I guess somewhere around 63 X turnover.
