looks awesome I was also thinking of adding 2 mp20s off the back wall to get more flow.

Looks great! How are you liking the pair of mp60 vs more mp40s? I'm concerned about things growing within the first foot or two...is the flow quite broad and gentle?

Yeah the 40's were much nicer for that. Added the 60's and have had a ton of tissue loss from being burnt from flow. The crappy thing with the 60's is they need to be 12" from the surface of the water. Thats half down my tank . They are having a few issues and not happy with them. Wont work with my battery backup. Wont stay in night mode and in constant flow they ramp up and down like reef crest.

Yeah because of the fact that my tank has the overflow on the end and I don't want any powerheads on the other viewable end I'm restricted in where I can place these things. I'm concerned about putting one or maybe two 7500 gph pumps directly underneath my overflow as I'm trying to direct detritus INTO the overflow right? So now I'm thinking mp40s will be the way to go. Most on the back wall but perhaps one or two under my overflow as well.

How are they in terms of noise compared to the mp40s?
