![]() I currently have a wp 25 and a tunzie 6025 mounted opposing at each end of my 90 G tank thinking of upgrading to either a RW8 which has a little more flow capability than the wp 25 or the RW15 quite a bit more than the wp 25 but could slow it down to suit. I'm hearing that the RW series has a lot wider flow pattern than the WP series
Thoughts and opinions welcomed. ![]()

![]() I would say go with the RW8 for a 4 foot tank. The RW15 is substantially larger so it would take up a lot of space

![]() I have 2 RW8 in my 4 foot 120 and run them at 6/8 power. That gives me plenty of flow and no dead spots I can see.

![]() I have two RW8s in my 6 foot 150g dialed to max and they are perfect for me.

![]() I have one RW8 in a 40G on the lowest setting possible. It wouldn't hurt to get a RW15 and just run it on a low speed. It leaves room for future upgrades and doesn't wear out the pump as much.

![]() Again, the only thing is the size. The RW15 looks literally twice as big as the RW8

![]() I have one rw8 in my 3ft frag tank and it makes a back and forth wave. I probably get about 1 inch of lift on each side. Sps loves it and the rw8 is just above half gph. This unit is also very quiet for me.

![]() Thanks all for the input, just ordered a RW8 from Reef Supplies.
![]() I'll put the new RW8 on one end and a WP25 on the other end opposing and see how that goes.

![]() You could sell your WP25 to fund another RW8 and then they can talk to each other, might give you more options
