hey steve, how are the Vortech's holding up for you? had any issues with them at all? I just loved the way you did that, I'm telling you if I'm ever out in Colorado you'll have to give me a tank tour!

I would have gone glass if I could. There is no one in Denver to build a glass tank in place Hurlock

Check out this thread. Umm, Fish? Umm, Fish? had his 430g L shaped built in place. He's in Boulder which is about 40 miles right?

BTW GREAT TANK :thumbsup:

Awesome looking tank!!!

I am setting up a 280g with 4 vortechs. Have you tried the pulse mode with all 8 running and if so i assume you found the gyre as the best option. I was planning do have all 4 in pulse mode but maybe i should rethink.

Thanks
Jason

It is just possible that I like your tank more than my own. Love the 5 foot width!

Steve,

How far apart are your vortech's?
How far from the top of the water is the upper pump?
How far from the sand is the lower pump?

Any problems with blowing sand around?.
Any problems with sucking air in from the top pump?
Any noise in the pumps, or do they run silent?

Thanks
Mo

Sir
I saw a recent video of your tank few months ago it's all grown very well and its a very good inspiration.
Anyway how many Tunze powerhead did you add?
Have you consider getting LEDs to save some electricity?
Thank you
