Do you use a controller on your 6100s?
I just use the 7091 controllers, but will be getting the fancy 7095 soon as they automate what I manually tweak now... regardless, the natural movement of the corals is stunning... very much like what I have seen in oceanic films and very much unlike the "blowing" current we are used to seeing in closed systems... I have seen the wavebox in action as well... very impressive... probably as natural and chaotic as my 6100's... just beware that they will make your water level fluctuate and I have heard reports that they may stress glass tanks... a member also had a Wave2K for sale on here for a good deal... I haven't seen one except in videos... but they look impressive as well though they are apparently quite bulky... I had a single 6100 running on my 6 foot tank and was quite happy with the flow... there's nothing like two of these suckers pushing back and forth and creating currents though...
