Can anyone tell me the gph that a 6ft 125 with dual megaflow overflows can handle? Just trying to get an idea and get ready to but my return pump soon. Thanks in advance, Joe

1200 gph sounds about right. A panworld 55 or iwaki 55 would be just about right, plus maybe a tunze 6060 if you need a lot more flow for the corals and are not planning to drill in a closed loop.

I am planning a closed loop also, but it will probably come later, I want a clean look to the tank so a tunze is out of the scenario.
