Salty Pickle Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I was going to put (2) 530 GPH Power heads, opposite sides facing each other, alternating every 5 minutes, on a 25 Gallon Fusion Lagoon with mainly SPS and a splash of LPS. Is this enough flow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectra Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Should be fine. I have a 20 and upgraded the return pump to a sicce 1.5 and it works great. Also run a MP10 at about 50% otherwise sand flies in the tank...... So you picked up a lagoon good call! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did some research and found that the 211gph on the 20 is the same as the 25 which leads me to believe it is the exact same pump, so I ordered a Sicce 1.5 as well which just so happens to be a door buster at BRS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandinga Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 If you are going mainly SPS, i'd get as much as possible without splashing water out of the tank. Sticks like the flow...though in a small tank like that, you will be very limited on low flow zones that LPS need...Though they will not have supreme flow, the SPS should be fine since the flow will be alternating.
