In terms of stocking I have gradually added 4 fish, a few corals and a small clean up crew consisting of snails, crabs and a brittle star.

    jebao wp25 twin controller

    Hey just setting up my new rsm 250 and thinking of getting the jebao twin controller with 2 wp25 powerhead. Would.this be too powerful on a 250l tank. Also what is everyone's opinion of these pumps they seem to be a good cheaper alternative then the vortech pumps.

    New reefer with RSM C-250
