Hi all, I have decided to jump back into the hobby after a 10yr break.  My tank have been running for a good 3 months now and I'm looking at getting a Vortech MP10 for my 45G tank.  But debating if I should get the MP40 instead cuz I know later down the road, I'm going to upgrade to a bigger tank.  Will the MP40 be too strong for my current tank now?  I know my mind think it is, but just wanna get your advices or opinions.  LOL
Dimension of the tank is 26X16X19 
 
It's too strong if you run it above 30%. You can adjust the flow so if you're sure you're going to upsize your tank you've saved yourself some money. Although, on a larger tank you could use the MP 10's on the back to provide additional flow along with MP 40's on the sides.
