Hi, All, I'm having a custom tank built by crystal dynamic aquarium with a demensions of 30 x 30 x 24. This tank will be a bare bottom acropora dominated tank. I have used a majority of the major branded pumps over the last 12 years from ecotech, ai, gyres but for this build I'd like to try...
I just got 2 new Tunze 6055 electronic powerheads and I’m wondering if anyone has set them up to work inversely to eachother and how to do it?
I think eventually I will have them programmed to a profilux when I buy the controller, but for now I plan to set them up connected to eachother.
I...

This has been in use for about 8 months, works great. There is a slight crack in the out feed line but still operates just fine, which is why I’m selling it so cheap. All included mounts/mags will be with this item.

Getting started on this journey.
I have been learning whatever I can retain over the past few months. Now I'm ready as ever to take my chance at my first reef tank. I've dreamed of a saltwater aquarium since I was just a little guy so here it goes.
My plan is to build a minimal maintenance 40...
I currently have an MP40 on each end of my 4 foot mixed reef tank. Have quite a few acro frags and am looking to get some more flow, including increased surface agitation. Considering two Tunze powerheads for the back wall of the tank. These look like good options since you can point them...
I am having huge problems in my tank as of recent and am trying to figure this out and rule it out as a problem. I have a Tunze 9001 in my Waterbox Cube 20. The only way to use this skimmer is to put the skimmer facing sideways and the magnet is being submerged in the water. I was wondering if...
Hi all. Long time member (I think I joined right around when R2R started or took off years ago) but got out of the hobby for about 6 years and now I am back! I don't see many build threads for the PM 15 (mostly the 25) so thought I'd share my journey here. This post will be a bit behind...
Hey All,
Sadly while doing some cleaning last night, I accidentally stripped the wire from the connector pin between my osmolator controller and pump (it’s been with me for awhile and I was caught being careless)
I was wondering if anyone has a link to a suitable replacement connector( so far...
Hello everyone! I have a Tunze 9004 DC Skimmer bought on July 19th, 2020 new from BRS. Used it on a 30 gallon long but upgraded to a waterbox so I no longer need it. Took skimmer apart and thoroughly cleaned it. Will post pictures later tonight. I have a QT tank that I recently set up. There is...
Hello, I need some help figuring out the best and preferably affordable way to run 4x 6055s.
Basic plan is alternating pairs running across the tank (110g tall), though some form of random or semi random option could be nice as well and I'd like to run a moonlight sensor. May need to upgrade to...
For those of you that like to tinker and/or fix things, here is a Tunze 6105 motor block. Notice that the cord sheath is broken where it enters the block itself. The pump works fine but I don't want to use it in this condition. MFG date is 08/2018 so it's not very old. Including only what...
Hi everyone coming back to the hobby after about 15yrs away; back then had a down and dirty 55gallon reef tank with all HOB equipment. Recently purchased an apartment so was finally able to come back to the hobby without the fear of having to move the tank etc. Since a lot had changed in the...
I ordered a Tunze 3155 ATO from BRS a few months back. Lately I've been noticing that it won't detect when the water gets low so its not replacing the evaporated water. I cleaned it to make sure it wasn't that and nothing. Only thing that has helped was to unplug it and plug it back in. But even...
Looking for other Tunze 9410 skimmer users!
How deep do you have your water depth around your skimmer?
My original impeller corroded and split. The original impeller is no longer available and has been replaced with a newer, less output model impeller. I was told by Tunze that the...
I bought this skimmer online.
Unfortunately it’s a hair too wide for the back of my tank. It’s an open box but it’s brand new! I am Asking$160. I am willing to ship it. Message me if you’re interested or have any questions!
Tunze DOC Comline Protein Skimmer 9004 Nano Tank
I've been in this hobby since I was a teen. My current living situation is such that a large tank is not feasible , nor is a whole house generator that I had on my previous house... But I'm making due and making equipment selections that will lend themselves to a future big upgrade when life...
I have a BRAND NEW pump/controller/power cord for this skimmer. I BELIEVE the old controller is messed up, so you could maybe repair the controller. The Internals of the old skimmer pump in this is fine. You will need to install the new pump/controller assembly. It isn't shown in the pictures...
Hey friends,
I purchased the tunze 9004 protein skimmer for my very young and brand new reef tank and I followed all the instructions, it's in the tank, set up, plugged in, the air screw is all the way loose, I waited the couple hours to full day the manual recommended for a start up period, I...
Hi y’all.
I have been doing tons of research and can’t pick between the tunze, vortech or ai for my powerheads. I had decided very early to use the mp40 but now that I can’t find it anywhere along with the g5 lights I have begun to rethink things for my 120(4x2x2).
what u know so far:
