What are you using for flow?

I have 2 of the new VorTech pumps on preorder through my distributor but may put a Sea Swirl on there also. BTW I still don't think I have enough flow Those VorTech's should help out though. They will be placed on the opposite ends of the tank.
Thank you!

I am using an ampmaster 3000 feeding 4 in outputs. Plus I have 3x6100's tunze streams .

You must hate me then, I still play LP's and reel to reel tapes at least once per week. I also have a lazer disk hooked up, and about 30 movies on that format.
