What pump??

[torombolo]

Hello!!!
I'm about to place an order for my 90 gallon, I was considering a Gen-X (PCX-40), I have a Lifereef prefilter box with 1" tubing to my 18 gall sump. Would this be too big for my set up?(Overkill) I will ad a 10 gall Fuge and a Coralife SuperSkimmer 220g also.

Thanks in advance for the help..

what size pump are you going to use :?:

 

[torombolo]

The pump is rated at PCX-40 1190GPH 22 ft 3/4" MPT 110W
My tank is at 4' and I need to consider the pump must also handle a chiller in about a month. Should I consider a MAG 12 or 18 instead??

Thanks

I would look for a pump that would give me 800-900 gph at 6ft of head. Many good submersiable and externam pumps out there.

I would wait and put the chiller on and see how the flow is. then go for there 8)
