    Don't know the name of it as it came bundled in the 46 gallon SeaClear System II.

    What size power pump would be right for a 46 gallon tank?

    Well, on my 40g breeder, I had 2 Korlia 750's and a 500gph return pump and that moved water quite well with no sand blowing around.

    It appears that I do have a good amount of water flow using the supplied return pump of 350 gph and may need a 550 circulation pump later.

    Would it be better to increase the size of the return pump and not get circulation pump?
