Just picked up a MP10 for my Waterbox 35.2 gallon tank. My question with the new mobius app. I want to run the AB+ sch but do not want it to be over kill. Should I run it on the lowest setting is 1371-1474 gallons per hour medium is 1884-1987 GPH and high is 2295-2500 GPH defualt setting is 2500. I dont want it to be to crazy for my 35.2 gallon. Any help would be awesome.

I think even at the lowest setting the MP10 might be overpowered for your tank. 20x is usually plenty. I run a pair of ReefWave45's as my primary gyres at a maximum of 50% (so 4,000 Gph max in my 160-gallon display). That's the equivalent of 875 Gph in your tank.

Something like a Nero 3 would probably serve you better (assuming you can find one right now).

I wanted to go Nero 3 but they are impossible to get. I am currently cycling my tank at the moment and I have my MP10 running at the lowest setting on the AB+ Schedule so once I start adding stuff we will see how everything acts. I put my hand in the tank and it does not seem to be to overpowered we will see
