Nano-Reef Tank setup question

xkornstarx2 · January 12th, 2006

Hello, I am currently setting up a 10 gallon nano-reef tank. I am running an Exoterra 501 external canister filter that I previously used in a turtle tank. It operates at 79gph. Will this provide sufficient filtration and water flow for the tank or should I also purchase a powerhead? Thanks for any help you can give me.

Ive always hear 10 times ur tank size is how many gph u should have but u might be able to get by. but my suggestion is to get a more powerful filter.
