Hi All! I've got two mp40's on my 6 foot tank, one on each end facing each other . What is the best way to get a wave motion going?
TIA!

Sorry if this has been discussed a lot before. I just haven't been able to find the right answer. Thanks!

I have the same setup. One pump is the master and the other is the slave. I use the nutrient transport mode.

A third (or even fourth) pump is really needed for tank that size.

With an effective range of about two feet, only two pumps leaves you with a decent size dead zone in the middle of a six foot tank.

I think they mention a third-pump configuration being needed for nutrient transport mode in the manual too, BTW. (One of the modes, anyway.)
