![]() I really think you should be okay with one MP10, I have ran one on my 65G when I had it and it was enough! You could also point your returns to assist with dead zones.
It would be awesome if you had a picture of your tank showing your placement, I always found it difficult to determine the perfect postion in regards to my rockwork you might have to change a few times. |

![]() Good point about the pictures, so here they are.
Hopefully it'll help to figure out my pump question. Thanks everyone. Ren

![]() Here's my take on your situation, seeing that you have the VorTech placed at one end of the tank. Sure one will probably do, but your flow will be predominantly in one direction and although pulse mode will give you a back & forth flow, that mode gets annoying quick with the constant ramping up & down of the MP10. I'd say keep the Hydor at the other end for now, until you get your hot little hands on a second MP10. Once you have #2, your flow options with a Master/Slave set up will increase substantially. In addition, you can run the two at lower power settings to cut down on the sound.

![]() I agree / disagree with mike. In such a small tank I think if you were to T your return with locline and point it opposite of your MP10 you will have I believe enough flow in both directions. Personally I don't mind the pulse mode and its all I run on my 120 I suppose it just boils down to $$ and perference.
Sure 2 - MP10s would be better more is always better, is it needed its arguable. |

![]() For now I think I'll stick with one vortech and one hydor. I'll ask Santa for a new pump for Christmas or if/when I win the lottery.
Thanks Ren
