![]() So I have my tank setup, Redsea C-250...
I slapped a MP10 into one end of it. I tried every mode and can't get a decent wave.. 2 questions,,, 1) MP10 max glass thickness is 9.5mm , mine is 10 mm,, will this be an issue ?? 2) to get a wave going should I replace the MP10 with a MP40 ? or get a second MP10.. Ecotech rates the MP10 for 50 gal,, my tank is 55 gal,,, will getting 2 MP10's bump up my rating to 100 Gal ??? I'm thinking if yes,, then 2 MP10's will give me more flexibility,, but if they are too puny than I'd rather get a MP40 thoughts ??? thx

![]() Two would be ideal as the Vortechs work way better in groups. Random flow is way better than a wave and thats what you want. Adding another MP10 would help alot but take in mind if you bump up to the 40s the noise level may get annoying

![]() I think I'll be getting a MP40 to pair up with the MP10...
Was wondering if when paired that they would both know that one is a 10 and the other is a 40,,, compensating for the difference or something ??

![]() I had an MP10 on my 55 gl, wasn't enough so added the MP40. You don't have to sync them, just have them on the same setting, MP 10 at full, MP 40 at 50% and you are good, or adjust as needed. I have 2 MP40's on my 180, they are synced, and run at the same speed.

![]() Does not syncing them ensure that they are on the same program ? performing the same function in "Sync" ???
