    Forgot to add, no reactors or anything. Straight from the sump to the tank. It is a split outlet into the tank. So 1 line split into 2 right at the tank.

    The guy made a mistake they are 750 s. Still worth buying for that price?

    In a 90gal your going to need at least 4 of them. Remember that's more of an eye sore of pumps, more power usage, maintaince, and more heat. If its a first generation Koralia's and you are going to be using a wavemaker, that's a lot of clanking on each start up on each pump.

    My advice, just do it right the first time. Buy two EVO 1400. I bought mine at petmountain.com I think I paid like 30 something each. Well worth it.

    I ended up with them because they were so cheap. I will just get 2 more 750's or a 1050 or something. Guess it will provide more varied current this way.

    amazon sells the Koralia Magnums (5,6,7,8 ) for about 35-50$ cheaper than the LFS up here in CT, might be a good route for you in the future.
