thanks for posting that, I was going to start this thread yesterday but had to go to work early.

my concern with this set up is the water PSI it takes to index the unit. what I am trying to end up with is a reversable mass water flow to simulate an ocean current with out any high velocity spots.

to do this I amd figuring the max pressure out of what ever pump I use has to be adjusted to about 2PSI which I don't think is going to be enough to index your unit. I don't know how big the ports are or anything and how much it moves when it does index, or are you talking about one of the motorized ones with a double barrel?

a super squirt stacked would be a good size but will the motor be strong enough to turn two barrels?
