Tunze Nano Wavebox or VorTech MP20?
I can't decide!!! I *LOVE* waveboxes. Period! I really love the wave action they give LPS corals. So...I'm tossing around the idea of putting one in my 40g breeder when I set it up. Is anyone using the Nano wavebox on a 3' tank? I imagine the waves would be fairly quick.
Or I'm think about using the VorTech MP20, or a closed loop with a OM Squirt, or, or, or... Right now the Wavebox is winning. I would really like to hear from people who have one on a 3' tank. :D |
I am using one on my 36x36x27 tank. Here is a poor quality video of it in action

Ooooo, nice Percs! :D
Thanks for the video! It is definately a quick wave...but it sure looks great! I like how it creates a lot of flow, but it is such a gentle flow that it really seems quite ideal for LPS corals. :) |
YouTube has lots of Nano Wavebox videos.

Hey Jack! Ever think of putting one on your 40 breeder? What do you have for flow in yours?
|
No, I had a wavebox on my 200 gal and thought it was okay - I don't like how every soft/lps coral in the tank moves exactly the same way at the same time. It's looks and works good for SPS though - just looks silly with soft corals all going left right left right left right IMO.
I've got a Nanostream 6025 on the breeder and the Nanocleaner puts out another 200gph - that's it. |

I've been thinking of one for my 45g. Wondering how well they would work on a curved front corner tank?

I have Jack's old Wavebox and I love the "rock concert" effect on my LPS and softies - too each his own, I guess.

Myka, given the cost of the nano wavebox versus the MP20, it would strike me that the MP20 has a little more flexibility and costs about $50 less. It also takes up less real estate in the tank.
Just my 2 cents though. |
