    Sour tale of Ecotech Vortech pumps

    Yeah, size-wise the voyager loses... Not such a big deal in my tank, but i can see the reason to like the Vortech for that. I think one of the reasons I'm sour is that some folks have silent ones, and I don't. I lost the Ecotech quality control lottery. I paid the price, I want that to go...

    Sour tale of Ecotech Vortech pumps

    See, these comments are good, keep the resale market going. Who wants an MP40, installed 2 months ago?

    Sour tale of Ecotech Vortech pumps

    I'm using my Apex switch them, though I'm sure any wave timer or controller would do just fine. Ryan, want to buy an MP40? :chuncky:

    Sour tale of Ecotech Vortech pumps

    Alright, so as of about a week ago, I was a big fan of Ecotech Vortech pumps, I have an MP40 plus the WXM module for my Apex to control it. I was about to participate in a group buy and I added an MP60 to my order. Then I found out that Ecotech doesn't allow retailers to discount their products...

    Coaline Algae Die Off

    My coralline always used to die off when I changed out my halides... Didn't like the extra light? Seemed ironic, but it was predictable.

    NYC: Manhattan Reefs Frag Swap - May 20th - Downtown New York

    What time that day? Maybe you can do both. It's right near city hall, you can get hitched, go pick up some corals, and then spend the night acclimating.

    Brand new MP10w ES busted

    I'd be interested in that mod, would certainly quit 70% of my bitchin' if the pump was silent!

    Brand new MP10w ES busted

    Just on/off (they start soft in the correct direction, unlike Koralias), and you can dial them down manually. Just not dynamic. Sticking to my guns here, going to make these work, since there are two MP60s for sale elsewhere on this forum. Apex should control these just fine.

    Brand new MP10w ES busted

    http://reefbuilders.com/2011/02/24/sicce-voyager-hp/ I just ordered two of the Voyager HP 4000, shipped Prime from Amazon. I think I'll retire my MP40 from my DT, move it to the frag tank. DT is built into a wall and the vibrations are terrible, this low rumble in the other room when the thing...

    Brand new MP10w ES busted

    Yeah, they're not quiet compared to other propeller pumps. Their only plus is their low heat and wireless. Though in reality, the control isn't all that... You'd mostly want to run them full on, full off anyway, except they make WAY too much noise full on, so you have to ramp them up and down...

    First reactor - question on flow

    Churn seems way too high on the GFO, it's going to grind itself to bits. I don't know what the pellets are supposed to run at, but I'd expect that to be too high for them too.

    75g Mixed Madness

    Yeah, I have one of those too. Bought years ago off eBay, didn't have any markings, thanks for the link! I drilled mine to add a pH port on top.

    Seneye - Anyone have one?

    I just purchased... I bought 3-months worth of the slide packs. Though I don't think you need them in order to use the PAR meter. I think that's their way to give away the razor and sell the blades, but it also gives you a nice web UI for a bunch of stats. In any case, I just ordered one, I'll...
