Hey Bob,
Do you think the 620 is enough flow for the 30" tank or would you buy a 820 next time..??
My 620 is supplemented by the return of a Fluval 304, but I would probably get a 820 if I had to do it over.

The 820 makes my 90 almost too turbulent! The 1500 would be waaaaay overkill IMO.

Since I added it, skimmer production has almost doubled! (I guess more junk is staying suspended rather than just laying at the bottom.)

I think you might regret using the 1500 in a 90.

You ditch the outside housing and that flow director that you see in the pic and use it naked.
It's only half the size that way and totaly unrestricted.

If you want I'll send you a pic of it with the stuff off of it tommorow.

I have two 1680gph tunze and two 820 seio's in my 3 foot long 90 gal and I can't feel a hard current anywhere.. depending on the price I would replace my 820's with the 1500's in a heart beat.
