Just filled up my tank, have two Octo Pulse 4, rated at max 17,000LPH, 4500GPH, same as MP40s but I have it on lowest setting, 1 LED, 30% I assume and its displacing a lot of my shallow sandbed.
I've search other 525XL builds and most use 2x MP40s, some even 3 Gyre 250!!
How are you guys running such high flow with a sandbed?
Do I really need to try sell them and get the Pulse 2s?
1st pump-Left side, centre, 5 inch down from water line, angled slightly toward front glass
2nd pump: right side , on back wall, about 4 inch down, angled inwards
Any advise welcome, thanks
Photo is right side, and my VarioS-6 Return pump isn't even on yet.
I tried increasing the LED, thinking maybe they reversed the logic haha, but nope.
