They will give more flow and the return pump will be a gen-x (the PCX-30 I belive)!
I have 2 of the #3's...I really like them! They really give alot of flow! It's a nice widely dispersed flow too..not just a steady stream! I think 2 of the 3's are perfect for a 75...

Thanks... I live about an hour from State College. I have an idea where you are...I travel out to Lancaster to get fish and supplies every so often.
I posted new pics of my tank but they didn't post..hmmm...I'll have to check that out when I get back..I have to run and do a few things in town.

false percula clown
scopas tang
hippo tang
2 blue/green chromis
flame hawk
lawnmower blennie
pygmy angel
royal gramma
bicolor blennie
diamond goby
yellow watchman goby
green clown goby
brittle tiger star
coral banded shrimp
cleaner shrimp
hermits, snails, bubble tip anemone, feather duster, and a few corals.
everything gets along and has done really well. I try and do weekly 10% water changes (sometimes it is every 2 weeks depending on my schedule) I'm pretty sure that's what keeps my test numbers at 0.

well...in the beginning I had the normal algae blooms like everyone else..but I just had to be patient and persistant with maintanence ie: water changes etc...
....then I got a couple sand sifting gobies (diamond and sleeper)..and now I can say they do the work...
thanks for the compliment.

My cute little hawkfish showed a nasty ugly side today
...I was sitting in front of my tank taking a well deserved break from some landscaping (don't get me wrong...I love working in my yard) and right in front of my eyes my hawk grabbed a snail off the glass an preceeded to try and rip him out of his shell dragging him around the tank etc...! Imagine that..! well, I saved the snail. this time anyway.
