i installed the front propeller housing today into my tunze 6055 and wow..the flow is incredible its wide and strong, i was barely getting any flow to the other side of my tank and now i am getting plenty. it makes the koralia 4 look like a joke with its wide flow.

so heres the photo of the tunze 6055 with the new front propeller housing, and i also took a photo of my tank to show the amount of flow im getting now with the tunzes or tried to show it...from a top view.

my lights turned off before i could get a photo with only 6055 on i'll get that tomorrow. meanwhile any comments?

thanks guys for the comments!
i guess the only thing left to do now is to get those SPS to grow.

heres a question for all of you:razz: if you were in my shoes would u switch the 14k phoenix to 10k bulb with high par just for growth? then later on switch to 20k for color then back to the phoenix? or just wait it out and let them go at there own pace.

its been a while so i decided to update the thread. So since middle of June is supposed to be the hottest its been for 20 yrs i decided to get a JBJ Arctica to get prepared for this and in return it has kept my temp in +/-2dF at night time being 77.8 to MH being on at 79.8 ish. I also upgraded my deltec MCE300 to an MCE600 along with a media box. This skimmer is far better than the MCE300 with the trade off of it producing a bit more noise. The media box is used with Zeolites for me to use along with my C dosing (vinegar + vodka +sugar).

so i guess now i'll put the photos, enjoy:smile:
