    I have a single MP10.

    At first I ran it in Nutrient Transport Mode, but switched to Reef Crest random a couple of months ago. I haven't noticed a difference in the health of my SPS between the two modes. I prefer reef crest mode since it is a bit quieter.

    Why do you say that^?

    I dont think that if you place both pumps on sync that it allows for enough random flow, but if you put them on anti-sync and say like reefcrest and lagoon that would be your best bet. You get all the flow patterns for every kind of coral from top to bottom. I could be wrong just a thought though.

    I'm confused. We are both saying that running two on anti sync is the best option if it's possible...

    I'm thinking a MP40 in my 54 corner tank synced with the ecotech radion. These pumps are pretty amazing to say the least! Can't wait. Great thread BTW
