Just purchased this system and have questions. I went ahead and purchased two Hydor Koralia Evolution 750 Aquarium Circulation Pump since i know water flow is extremely important in a fish tank. so first question would be is that to little? or to much? also i need to know how much sand i should put and which sand would be best..

i think 2 X 750 should be fine. i have a MP10 and i run it at 90% of the full speed.
i have around 30 pounds of sand in my JBJ. the type of sand that you choose is your personal preference. i prefer not to use fine sand since it causes a sand storm very easily.

Go with the MP10 if you can afford the toy it is super nice!!! Stay away from the fine sand as much it looks nice like roneil said it will make a huge mess.
