Is anyone using an MP10 on a 180g tank? MP10 specs appear to recommend a max glass thickness of 3/8" but it seems 180g tanks are generally made with 1/2" on the sides.

Really you should try one before you buy one if you have not. I have a 10 and a few 40s in another tank. IMHO a 10 is good for a really small tank where small flow and adjustability are a must. Anything bigger tank wise, they are over priced for the amount of water they move. I think the quality is good but for moving water there are better options out there. I wouldn't have bought one after using it, but would have spent a little more for another 40. Big difference between the two for a little more money.Bump... really want to add another vortech or two to my tank but don't need the size or flow (or cost) of a MP40. Thinking about just trying it and seeing what happens...
Dont buy mp10 for tank 180.
With 100 bucks more you can get the mp40.
Even 2 mp40 i dont think that is even enough for the 180g just so you know
I had 2 mp40 on the 120g a while ago and had to add a third one
I know this is an old thread but did you try this? I have thought about using mp10 on my back wall of my 120I have been debating running 2 MP10 on the back wall of my 42"X24"X21" tank. I will run an MP40 to push water across the length of the tank. The idea was to leverage these pumps (which I own from a smaller tank) and see if a second MP40 is needed. I kind of like the idea of running them off the black back wall. YOu would not see them. The tank glass is 1/2" though so I would secure them properly. Thoughts?
Idk why there is so much mp10 hate. Good little pump. Have 1 mp40 and 2 mp10s on my 425 redsea
