Maxi-jet mods

tdanks · 06-26-2008, 02:29 PM

I just bought two maxi-jet mods for my 75 gallon they work awesome on my mj600 my question is are the two enough ciculation for my tank or do I need to add more?

Do you have a sand substrate ? Or is it BB(bare bottom) ? I'm bare bottom, and have 2 maxi-jet 1200 mods in a 65 gallon tank.

I have a sand bottom and I have 2 K2's plus a 500gph return in my 54 corner.

I have a 120 with a Mag 18 return, 3 modded MJ1200s, one modded MJ 600, a koralia 4 a maxijet 1200 with a cut shroud and 3 aquaclear 50 powerheads. I do enjoy some good flow

One for understatement are you?

Maybe a little

I am thinking about putting two mj900 mods in there and a mj600 with a hydor flow on it plus I have 600gph return do you think that would cut it

i used 3 K4's, a Seio1500, and a 1200gph return ... WITH a 3-4" sand bed in my 125 when it was up.

How do you guys like the korilia series I was thinking about putting two K3 in there or maybe two tunze 6045 but they are so expensive

**CarmieJo** · 07-01-2008, 10:18 PM

I have 2 K2's in my 54 and I love them! Lots of flow, low energy consumption, minimal heat output, and very reasonably priced. I ordered them from Amphibious' store, The Cultured Reef.

I agree with Carmie. If I didn't already have the MJ mods, I would have gone all Koralias.

tdanks · 07-02-2008, 07:26 PM

I wonder if two k3 is enough for a 75

**CarmieJo** · 07-02-2008, 10:39 PM

I think that they would probably be enough for most situations but if you are going to go for high flow corals you might want to bump it up to K4's.

I have 2 K3's in my 100gal tank and I love them. I need to get a 3rd one to increase my flow some more.

I am just keeping soft corals in it for now my big problem is red slim algae I do regular water changes with RO/DI and everything else you are supposed to do but I keep having slim algae out breaks so I am thinking it must be not enough current
