So how does one "dial down" these things? Say you put it in reef crest mode....can you set the pump at say 50% and have it run in that mode or is there some other way to reduce the flow while still using their preset programs?

thanks Steve... we need an update of your tank too bro... :)

short video of the Vortech in the tank... it's dialed in to the lowest on short pulse mode... the pulses are turned on about 1/4... man, this thing can move some water... :)

Sweeet..I really like the middle video. I was waiting to see one of the clowns go WHOOOSH........THUNK! on the glass :wink:

Those things push some mega water!

So does the current pretty much hit the entire tank with no dead spots?

I was... ;)

until TFG started bringing all these Rainbows for a decent price... besides, I still only have a few morphs... :)

finally... 2nd water change since the move... man, it's funny how you get excited again after cleaning the glass.. you can see your corals again... LoLz...

I'm in the process of turning the 12g nano into a full reef set up to get ready for the clowns.. rather have the tank ready now than later... I'll probably start a new thread for the 12g nano... :)

I'm growing them out this winter and hopefully by spring time, I'll have a few frags up for grabs... :)

wrasses are doing well together... a little chasing every so often but nothing to be worry about... I've had them all together for a few months now... :)
