Default Tunze 6105 wide flow kit

Anyone know if these are available anywhere right now? I'm looking for the new prop housings... I think they're just the ones from the 6205.

Loudest part of my system would be the nagging sound I hear on a regular basis about how much time and money I spend on the tank.

You notice any difference with it? Is it worth getting? Thx.

Jeff from JL ordered mine from tunze, wasnt cheap but I really like it. Even though my tank is fairly large still I found that my sps love the wide flow more than when it was narrow. Wide flow is also easier on LPS since they do not have the velocity to blow the flesh off them.

wider flow is definately better... I was able to get closer to 100% output in a 3" tank...and direct the flow at the coral without any fear of damaging it...that being said if you're looking for flow over distance the more narrow output is best...
Well worth the $40

Is there any other difference to the wide flow kit other than just a shorter nozzle on the housing? I've heard you can just mod these yourself by shortening the nozzle but I wasn't sure if that causes any other problems.
