epleeds February 17, 2010 Share February 17, 2010 I am just wondering if it is enough flow. I am running 100% in reefcrest mode (yellow) on the upper left side and am wondering if I should supplement the other side of with either an MP10 or a Tunze 6055 on a controller. What do you guys/gals think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country February 18, 2010 Share February 18, 2010 I'm using a MP40W on one end of my 75 on about 70%, it moves alot of sand and I have a Tunze 6045 on the other end of the tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogurnda February 18, 2010 Share February 18, 2010 I am using one on a 90, and not full blast. The return has an eductor, which adds a good bit of current as well. I may add more flow to the other end when the SPS colonies grow bigger and possibly block the flow, but we'll see when the time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overklok February 18, 2010 Share February 18, 2010 I run 3 MP40's on my ninety. Two are running full blast, one is running in long pulse mode, maximum flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epleeds February 18, 2010 Author Share February 18, 2010 darn.....now that is a lot of flow....not sure i can stomach buying 3 of them. one was bad enough. maybe i could sell my tunze's to pay for an MP10 to supplement the other side. I am really liking the no cords look to the tanks...you have any pics of your tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having one MP40 and supplementing the other end with another type of directional pointing pump(s) would let you hit different areas as desired.

m3fan8ic February 18, 2010 Share February 18, 2010 I have one MP40 and one MJ1200 w/mod kit on my 144gl half circle.. I got pretty good flow. I have a video on here with just one MP40 running where you can see how much water flow is in my tank. Do a search and you should find it.

Novi February 19, 2010 Share February 19, 2010 One MP40W on my 90 on short Pulse mode 100% with the addition of my return, I have the perfect flow I want right now. I dont think theres a dead spot in the entire tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
