    Well i just received my ES upgrade a few hours ago and plugged it right in... I was extremely skeptical at first as to whether i should buy this or not. Honestly I did not think it would be worth it... BUT IT IS!

    If you have not upgraded yet and are considering, it is totally worth the price.

    What mode did you settle on?

    I can't decide if I like NTM or good 'ol RC. Keep switching weekly between them.

    Tidal swell mode is my personal favorite. The NTM makes my durso stand pipes whistle lol.

    Oh man, I only have one, but your making me want to get another one to run the ES modes. So, I'm blaming you if I end up with another ;D

    Hey also, BTW, where do you put them on a cube? I thought they were supposed to be opposite each other for the ES stuff?

    There's some guidelines in the manual for various tank configurations. It's near the back; section 5 iirc.

    Yeah but like matt said you can do the orange instead of the white slave mode... Not sure how effective it is that way though? Especially with NTM...

    well I threw on NTM first and that was pretty awesome. Checking out the other new ES mode now. I'm probably going to keep it on this mode and and then switch to NTM once a week or so. In my smallish tank the NTS really rips stuff around! (including my corals hahaha)
