Hello, I have a 20 gallon reef tank with two hydor koralia 425 gph circulation pumps, I have some SPS and LPS corals and they seem to be doing well but I was wonder if thats enough or if it would be a good idea to upgrade and if so, how much should I upgrade to? Thanks.
 
If anything might be to much for the lps all depends on placement - you would've been ok with 600gph for sps and 400 for lps

Even 600gph might be too much for sps. That 30x turnover. I say downgrade. That's way too much imo

ok well my corals look happy and healthy so Im just gonna keep them and see how it goes, thanks anyways.
 
its all about placement really, if all the polyps are opening and not getting 'stuck' in one spot then you are good.
