Thanks for the reply lance. I just ordered two Koralia 3 powerheads at 850gph each and will have a Mag 5 return pump pushing 500gph for a total 2200gph flow, or 34x the tank size. I think that will work nicely!
I did fing one discrepency though. My LFS recomemded to me Mag Drive 9.5 which pushes 950gph. Now, I only have a 1" overflow so that seems ecessive, is there a reason he recomended this and did I under estimate my return pump requirements?
Now onto my next question (there is always a next question
). This is the RO/DI I am looking at, what do you all think?

I am looking online now to see if I can find this model used (assuming nobody here suggests a better one). This is actually a double buy for me as I live in Charleston, SC and we are very hurricane prone (though we have been lucky for awhile) and this will reside in my hurricane locker when not being used for the aquarium.
