Flow in your nano

What is everyone using for flow in their Nano tanks? I’m picking up a 21gal Red Sea reefer and wondering what to use. Is Vortec still the Cadillac of pumps?

Just ordered a Tunze 6040.
Based on reviews they have slightly less power than the Vortechs, but they move a lot more water with a wider flow.
Here's a BRS vid...

They list at $160, but if you do a bit of investigative shopping you can get them new for under $100.
Mine should arrive next Wednesday, I'll drop a review and some vids.

I have a tunze 6040 in my 50 gallon cube nice small pump wide flow pattern. But it was really loud when I first got it but after a month it's has quieted down a bit you can still hear it but not too bad

I have x2 MP40s in my 60” tank, never gets over 60% in the program I have running now. Theyre very powerful, it can be a sand storm if I turn them up....
