Setting up a 220gal

[Otherone]

I like the Theo heaters and hydro powerheads - my 210 reef has 2x 1,400 gph and 4x 750 gph hydro koralias. I use a mag drive 7 @ 750gph for the skimmer and a 150 gph utility pump for tandem carbon + gfo reactors. Main pump is an external lil' giant - 2800 gph @ 6ft hieght. Lots of flow!

That's alot of flow for sure. How's that lil giant pump? Do they hold up well? I have a 10ft run I gotta make with my setup and was curious.

I bought 4 of the cheap Aqueon 950s. Beem running strong for 4+ months now. Very quiet. No complaints or issues with them.

Still debating what the flow of the powerheads should be or how much I want. I'm running a basement sump on this setup so I'll have plenty of flow from my reeflo pump. Thank you.
