Thoughts on this in a 60 cube? I assume too large?
looks HUGE
Depends on your plans. If you've seen at least the Tunze vids, then you've seen ONE flow a 150 gallon tank. Doesn't mean it's too much, but they do have a lot of other pumps I'd be likely to consider first.

You don't buy flow pumps to look at!
This type of pump is pretty well-adapted for hiding and working out of sight. Same goes for the similar, but much more diminutive, 6020 and 6040.
Like the 6055?

not a single one said "What are those HUGE things on the back wall?"
Exactly.
6095 as well.
I even like the AC line – the 6045 is one of my all-time favorites.
If you're not just here for a good gripe (which is fine too! ), then the closest logical comparison (at $140) would be one of the pumps I mentioned above:
Turbelle® nanostream® 6040
It's actually about the same size as your Hydor (63 x 63 x 63mm) but puts out a little more flow.
I don't even think the equipment registers in most "normal people's" brains. (i.e. not us) Their eyes are naturally drawn to the obviously interesting stuff living all over the place.

As it relates to the 6040, I was having a look at those. But the open propeller blade makes me a bit nervous...
Has anyone been able to use the tunze stream 3 with the 6105.5 battery backup?
I plugged mine in and couldn’t get the stream 3 to run.
Do you have it running on the back of the tank?I've had my Stream 3 for about 5 months now. I love it. It is dead silent, pushes a huge amount of water then entire 6 foot length of my tank. I bought it when one of my WAVs died and Neptune couldn't fix it...a $200 dead pump after 18 months, I am not interested in pumps that are disposable for that much money.
I bought the stream for the 5 year warrantee; and love it for the flow and silence. When my other WAV dies...I will buy another Stream 3
