I've had emails from customers with high flow SPS tanks that love it.
One guy last week claimed 2 x MP40s in a 75 with no issues. I don't have any first hand experience using it in a high flow tank but I'd say the trick is to get it good and live before hitting it with all that flow and not directing that flow down into the sand or into the lowest 3-4" of water column.
