    Hey all. Just ordered my first Ecotech Pump from BigAls! They shipped it out and it should be here on Wednesday. I have read up on these and have heard nothing but good things about them. I currently have a 120 gallon with a 1200GPH and two Koralia 1400's, but I feel the MP40 will help me advance my SPS keeping. I will be placing this on the right side of the tank (the K4's are on the back panels).

    I will post videos up for everyone to see the gunk this thing pulls out of my rock from the dead spots in the tank!

    I want to do exactly what you have set up, two on the outside, one on the back panel. How is that working out for you?

    haha in anxious to see that feature as well.

    I think the most exciting thing about it is the undertow to get rid of some dead spots!

    Unbelievable amounts of flow. But my lights are still back-ordered, so I can't speak on the behalf of my corals. I have one mp10 on my 30 that has turned my tank on turbo! Everything is happy... Fish, corals, rocks...everything

    The undertow is impressive. You can auto sync your wave now too! Make sure you get the full manual off there webpage. Or you can pm me and I'll walk you threw it when I get back to a computer.
