I'm in the process of upgrading my current 150 gal setup to a 233 gal tank within the week. My question is what size pump should I get? I dont plan on keeping any SPS right now. Mainly LPS. But you never know about the future. So far the pumps I am looking at are the Reeflo Dart, Reeflo Snapper, and Reeflo Barracuda.

are you going to use it for return pump or closed loop ? Either way, I recommend you get the powerful one. You can add powerhead later when you decided to go with SPS.

I would go with the new dart, I had the snapper and the flow was not enough.

or you could GO Red Dragon, I have one and it pumps the water, had to dial it down and the watt usage is super low
