There is an article on RKM that talks about how flow is actually more important than lighting.
I think I run about 9000 GPH of turnover. Adding Vortech's I noticed an immediate difference in polyp extension and color. Not to mention it looked like a snowstorm when I added them and it wasn't sand, that was how much detritus regular powerheads were missing. The tank is SPS dominant now … I could never give up my MP40's now … I just can't imagine running a tank without the anymore.

Lojack, maybe you could post a link to that article?
Right, keep in mind we're talking about flow for sps. Lps and soft corals don't require quite as strong of flow.
