Time to get some better powerheads
My Koralia Magnum 8 is causing sandstorms and stressing my tank. It's time to get some organized flow.
What are the best options for a 180gal display? I'm looking at: $$$$$$$$ Tunze 7095 and 2 x 6055 $$$$$$ Tunze wavebox $$$$$$ 2 x Tunze nano waveboxes $$$$ Vortech MP40 Would also consider controllable koralias or seio controller. |
I'm very partial to my Vortechs. I have 2xMP40W in my 90, more than I need but I love all the options I have with them. I keep mine on anti-synch reef crest random mode to really switch things up. I ran Koralias before I purchased the Vortechs and could never dream of going back. Alas, I have 0 experience with Tunze so I could not give an opinion on them.

I bet that's a sweet setup! 2 x mp40s...I don't think I'm allowed to spend $$$$$$$$$$ tho.
Anyone use the Koralia controller and two powerheads for $$$? |
Aquadic Addictions has 1 tunze nano wave box along with a few other pumps but that one wave box makes a great wave in there 250Gal display
|
Really!? I guess if you can dial in the one nano wavebox, you could get a decent wave.
Maybe I'll try one nano, dial it properly and see how it goes...I can always buy another. |
If you go with the wavebox use the full size unit, I ran one on my 180 and could get a 2"+ wave going no problem.
|
Do you need supplemental flow for the corals as well, or is the wavebox good enough?

I've had 4 Tunze 6055's since they came out.and a couple 6045. I've went through sheared impellers x 2, broken clips going into magnet x 4, broken holding brace x 4, And now I'm waiting for a power modual thingy. O ya another one just stopped working the other day went to pull it and holding brace broke and it was one of the new one's said to be upgraded stronger version. I have to say Mr. Tunze has warrantied them. But He is the slowest I think he send it by donkey. Because it usually takes 2 to 3 months to get parts back I've had to buy replacements and rotate as needed. I am ****ed and am ready to pull the hole set up and buy some Vortec.
