I just added yesterday a Koralia #4 to my tank-- 125G...
I now have the sump return (700 gph), 2 Seio 1500s (1500 GPH each)-- one on the controller alternating 50% to 100% every 2 minutes, and then the Koralia 4 (1200 GPH) I just added yesterday as I had a bit of a dead area on one side.... getting good flow now-- I had several dead areas before it.
although I'm now running 4900 GPH on the tank (39x tank volume)-- it isn't as much flow as you think if anything I need to add another small powerhead behind the rock in the left rear corner or at least remove/move some of my rock and eliminate the dead spot.
I do like the koralia but it is a bit bigger then I thought it would be-- is is a bit more intrusive then my SEIOs IMO (I have them hanging "tunze style") .. although it does look better.
I do like the flow to power ratio for this thing-- just sips energy-- draws just 8 watts but puts out 1200 GPH.... the SEIOS draw 20 watts for 1500 gallons if I remember correctly.
