How much flow

Hello again, I have a 110 gallon with some muchrooms, cloves, and assorted polyps. How much flow do you recommend. I currently have about 400 gph from the sump return, 250 gph from a powersweep power head and 120 gph from another power head. Each is pointed in a different direction.

Is this enough our should i consider getting a power head with a higher volume.

Re: How much flow

You could probably get away with that much, but if it were me, I would add another 250 or so, JMHO
Look into a maxijet maybe, a 900 or a 1200. A 900 just might do the trick.
