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.

Decided to look it up for "official" flow rates of my stuff after your post......

K1 - 400gph
F204- 180gph

580gph/15 = 39x turnover
580gph/12 = 48x turnover

Somehow I thought the K1 was 480gph, and the F204 was 200gph? Anywho, more realistic numbers here now. My Fluval runs empty minus carbon so I'm sure its a little higher than 180 running empty, but who knows...

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.

Cool. Was curious about other peoples flows and found this thread.

150g
2x tunze 6105 (3434 gph each at full blast)
1x Mag18 return (1300gph; accounting for head loss)
--------
total: 8168 gph ( / 150g ) = ~54x

at night I like to throttle the tunze down to 50% to give the fish a more peaceful rest.
