I knew I forgot to post something...sorry Troy :D So what do you think Doug....need a second unit?

Delphinus 02-20-2003 11:24 PM

eh ... um ... buh??? :shock:

Oh I think you meant Troy.... :)

Aquattro 02-20-2003 11:25 PM

right... :roll:

Depends on what else I run Brad. I am trying to run sumpless and powerheadless,{nice word}. It does need help. Not enough alone. I shut everything down and their was still an excellent current. Lots of rebound and movement all the way across my gravel bed but I dont think it would be enough.

Mind you, I am still playing with it. Took me half the afternoon, looking goofy at the bracket, trying to figure it out. Needed one of them engineers types. :lol: If I ran my sump, it would be enough with my 3MD return and the scrubber dump, {which is not much}.

I would like to put another on the other end. I have to figure out my sump situation first. Because of the scrubber dump, I am going to have problems with my Tunze Osmolater top-off, just running from the overflows. Dont think it will work as the water fluctuates to much in such a small area.

Brad, I have added a second.

Aquattro 03-11-2003 09:31 PM

And is it just awesome, or?? I see you're removing the scrubber...are the 2 streams enough?
Is the second a 6100 or the 6080?

Doug 03-11-2003 10:48 PM

Both 6080. Moves some kind of water and still gentle. Totally amazing pumps. I have one on each end. The meeting of the two, sure blew some crap from the rocks. :) Still playing with postioning.

Yep, sold the scrubber. Its working fine, but screws up using the overflows for mini sumps, as it fills. Cant use my Osmolator.

I,m sitting a 28in. beckett on the same shelf, fed my a Mak4, from one of the overflows.

I also want to add a second, but can't decide which one. I think the 6080, but one of the smaller ones coming out next month might do it.

brad,
if you recall i have a rather large colt colony in the center of my display.(back center)
in the future, do you think i can position a 6080 on one side of the tank, in such a way it wont blow the colt to bits?
or would i need to remove the colt if i decided to use these pumps?
