As some of you may know my concentration in the hobby rarely goes away from Clowns and Nems. I might even venture to say it never does. The relationship that they share is a perfect example of evolution. How a clown developed a slime on its body over time so it could use the nem for protection and in exchange feed it and provide protection for the nem. But you guys have slowly been bring me over to the dark side.
Since joining the club close to a year ago I cannot begin to tell you all the good info ive gotten from phyl, bill, brian and countless others. Since then i have starting to be come more engaged in the other aspects of the hobby the corals, the fish, the conservation (one of worries), and general chemistry of the hobby.
Since checking out new equipment for my new tanks i have been stuck on these new powerheards the Nano Stream and the Koralia. What i dont get is that they say they work with controllers.
I have seen post on here about controllers and so forth but never though to read up. So heres my question and im hoping that one you guys can give me the knowledge i need.
Does a controller just control the powerhead and what about the powerhead can it control. Does it control the speed, the one and off times, and the gph? I am looking to get a power head for my 10 gallon which will later go in my 24 Aquapod. Both of the afore mentioned powerheads have crazy 400 - 600 gph ratings way to much in my opionion for Bubble tips or carpet nems. Can a controller make them move slower or reduce the gph and can it control when it goes on and off?
Also I just ask that any answer you are giving keeps with the Star Wars theme of this post and is given impersonating the voice of Yoda or Jar Jar Binks.
