[quote=marie;425829]I was going to sell all my tunze streams to pay for the new pumps but the 2 in the middle add a little extra umph with the vortechs...I guess the next dog I groom will be charged a little extra...Lance, does Molly want a $300 beagle bath?


Marie, for $300 you'd have to keep her.
So, how do you like the Vortechs? I'm thinking of getting some for the new tank.

They are wonderful...definitely worth getting.

Have you had a chance to play with the different modes yet, or do you just have them going full blast?

p.s. watch out for tip burn...I found out the hard way

If he does I wouldn't notice because picking at sps is already my regal angels favourite occupation...the sps have learned to live with it

I've just started playing with them, at the moment I have them on reef crest, in sync...I haven't been able to form a wave yet but I didn't really want a wave anyway

I take it the other one is working OK now? the one you brought back has been running non stop so far, go figure! I think I may need to add a few more and loose the wavebox as the Vortech look so much better.

The vortechs have so much more to play with then the wave box

I've decided I like the long pulse, with the slave in sync. It's amazing how much crap gets picked up when they're going full blast and then the tunzes take over and blow the crap to the overflows when the vortechs are in down mode.

Thanks Greg, it's in no small part to you that it's looking so colourful
