    So i just got my hands on my new MP10 and its awsome!!!!!!

    Got it in reef crest mode, almost turned all the way down lol (is bigger than i imagined)

    but the corals love it, and the zoas opened up after about 10 mins of it being on!

    They are awsome power heads(well gen 2 that is) they stimualte real ocean currents and make random movement, they are the best at getting the most random water movement

    I'd recommend the MP40 for a 55. They run in the neighborhood of $419. I got mine on eBay for $399 with free shipping over a year ago. They're excellent pumps.

    For a 55 i think a mp40 might be overkill, id suggest a mp20

    I ran my MP40 for many months on my 55 before I upgraded my tank. It is not overkill.
