You are all welcome to join the...
Selling a brand new Vortech MP40W-QD, literally 3 days old, and used it for 10 minutes. The pump is way too powerful for my tank.
My loss is your gain. I purchased it for $366.50. I think when I was attaching it to the mount, I lightly scratched the controller. Nonetheless, happy to provide...
Hello everyone,
I am relatively new to the forum but have been in the hobby for quite some time. After a recent move, I am finally able to set up the aquarium of my dreams with a beautiful show tank in my livingroom. My livestock is patiently waiting in a 55 gallon in the basement but they are...

Reefer 250 around 18 months old.
Finally getting the hang of keeping sps. So I got rid of a big monti and went crazy with the sticks. This thing will be packed if I can keep everything in line. I've got 9 more frags to find spots for. I can't wait for these to take off!
Looking for an XF250 pump only preferably but will consider buying pump and controller if that’s all that’s available. I have tons of reef gear and coral to trade if someone wants to go that route too; Apex gear, EcoTech (5 or 6 Radion gen 1’s & 2 MP40WQD’s & 1 MP40 wireless white controller)...

I’ve recently purchased a Waterbox 100.3 (36x24x24) and am considering what to use for water circulation.
Currently I’m considering:
1 x mp40
1 x Nero 5
2 x maxspect gyre xf330 (overkill?)
I’d be interested to hear thoughts and what others are using on their tanks of this size.

Hi all... Trying to find the right code (if its even possible) to switch my MP40's to a specific flow type, eg. Constant for a period of time when a feed cycle is triggered, haven't found a definitive answer by searching here or Google as yet. For my COR return, I have something like If FeedC...
I have cleared the MP40s memeory a few times which has not helped.
Issues: will (daily) show up as missing. Sometimes it will show as missing even if the powerhead is still running. It also shows up missing after an apex restart.
Turning ON/AUTO/OFF will usually not work. I often have to...
I don't want to send the dryside to Echotech and pay 60$ for an extension. But the only place I can find these wires, sell them in bulks of hundreds of feet. Pricey to say the least.
I posted in the 'Looking to buy' forum (hoping someone has a busted dryside that i can steal the cable from)...
WTB
I want to extend the cable for my MP40, and I rather not pay 60$ to send it to Echotech for an extension. Does anyone have a busted Dryside sitting around? I'm not sure what it would cost me for shipping, but even just cutting the motor off would be fine by me lol
I'm having a heck of a...
