Vortech pump mode favorites?
Hey guys curious as to see what modes are your favorites on the vortech mp10,40 and 60 models! Also what kind of tank you are using it with!

My Apex rotates my MP40's through almost every mode daily, depending on what time of day it is.
I think the standing wave is my favourite mode though (short pulse) with anti-sync on the opposing pump.

I've got 2 mp40's synced on reef crest mode on full, but going to change it to see if I can get more flow across the sand on my 180 gl tank. Have an mp10 on my 55 on reef as well, but when I synced the 2 40's, it grabbed the 10 as well on the other side of the house...was making it act funny so I've shut it off for a while.

I'm liking the Tidal Swell Mode with my MP-10 as it will cycle through right-left flow, calm period, then left-right, calm period, and then the great surge. I believe it will give the best random flow throughout my tank.
Bigger tanks will most likely benefit more with the Reef Crest Mode providing that there are dual Vortech's working together.

I agree with all the above, I am currently using a mp10 in my 35 cube and I feel that the short pulse is a little too much for my little clowns so I like using the Nutrient export mode on a lesser flow setting seems to do the trick. But when my clowns get a bit older I'll ramp it up and switch between short pulse and that. May even add another mp10

aw jeez Trigs....are you sure you wanna bring this up?.....Im waiting for the koralia users to jump on and say that their koralias are the best because they are cheaper and all the features that a vortech has are just glam and glitz
