I just hooked up a fluval fx5 to my 120g discus tank, and Im thinking I'd love a canister filter for my 30g (deep) salt water setup to replace the aquaclear/powerhead combo Im currently using.
I know its better to go bigger for filtration with salt water- but would a 405 be too much?
I have a 304 on my 55. The 405 will give you around 11xper hour turn over. So that will work. You may want to add another low flow ph to position for good chaotic flow. Are you looking to do a reef?

Its been up and running about a year, with 46lbs of liverock, 2 kenya trees, a small bunch of zoos. Currently there is a damsel, a perc clown, royal gramma, and a fire goby (no plans to add more fish, maybe some corals). I also have tons and tons of brittle stars. Im just using PCs, so I wouldnt be addings tons of other corals.
