I run 2 mp10s on my 6" 125 gallon on opposite ends in short pulse mode for a wave and works wonders almost zero dead zones and lots of flow, I bought a wp25 thinking I needed more flow but so far they handled
Really love the wave effect they make

Mine run in a RCR mode until I hit the feeding button on the Profilux. Then they all drop down to 10% for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes they boot up to NTM at 80% for a couple minutes then back to RCR. I also have a thunderstorm at 5pm and the 4 MP40's go to 80% in NTM as well.

I run my mp40 and 60 through profilux. starts with NTM for 2 hours in the morning, to reef crest, lagoon mode. etc. Can't remember how I program them.
Ecotech has great build programs, and connecting them through profilux. Let me use all of them.

3 MP40s in TSM most of the time, with max speed limited to about 80%. A few hours before water change, I switch them to NTM. That only takes one push of the mode button, same thing to go back to TSM. An MP40 on each end glass & one at the back. One on the end is the master, the rest are slaves. The MP40 on the back glass is limited to a lower maximum speed because the tank is narrow. Tops of the pumps are about 3 & 1/2 inches from the water surface.
