Hey everyone!
Anybody with this tank and pump, what setting are you running? Full throttle? All the way down?

Thanks.
Paul.

What’s the max gph? I have an Eheim 1000 that’s 264gph I run it 100% and have a 240gph koralia on opposite side

 

[Paul31733]

It is 251 gallons per hour.

I ran mine at about 75% in a predominately a LPS, Euphyllia tank. I still used a wavemaker though to hit those dead spots.

I guess it really depends on what you plan on keeping. I have mostly LPS and softies with 1 (soon to be 2) SPS high up in a high flow area. Mines running 100% but most of that flow is in the upper third

Ok thanks. I also have a current usa wavemaker that is up to 660 gph. I found that when both were on, my firefish was not too happy and one of my hammers retracted. Maybe I should slowly raise the flow instead of just blasting them.

What about a controller? That way you could alternate flow so nothing is getting hit constantly

This is late but I had a question. I also have the fluval evo 13.5 and just upgraded to the Sicce Syncra Silent 1.0 and I can’t get it to go all the way down into the chamber. It gets caught up on the water intake spot from chamber 2…. Any tips?
