    Just a quick question to see if I could push a lil more water flow in my tank. I already have two Koralia 3's in my 90 gallon so could I add another #3 possibly or is that 2 much flow? And what would be a good placement for all the Koralias?

    I have one 3 on the right side wall close to front of tank, facing down and towards the middle back, one 3 on far left close to back of tank, facing down and towards the front middle. My two return pipes create a cross current at surface. I don't have SB disruption from the 3s in my 75. Maybe you could try putting a third PH down a bit lower in tank and watch how things flow and if your critters and inhabitants react well to positioning, if not, they're so easy to move with the magnets. Hope this helps a bit!

    That plus about 500GPH from the return. I am running about 50x turnover.
