6100 too big for 90gallons?

[Portsmouth Reef]

Hello Roger

I have just picked up my Tunze 600 and 7095 Multicontroller after waiting for weeks for them to arrive. When I unpacked the stream pump, and looked at it I found out it was a 6100.
I have a 90 gallons(U.S.) tank. If I run the pump at 30 to 40 percent of flow, will this be too much for my tank?

Does it say 6100 on the box? All pumps say 6100.10, that is the part number of the motor block for a 6000 or 6100. I would use a 6000.

Hello Roger
Thanks for the quick reply. On the box it says 6000, but on the pump it says 6100.10 and 2500 to 1200 l/h. On the tunze website the 6110 is 4000 l/h plus, and the 6000 2500l/h plus. I am confused

I've looked again at the booklets. I have got the right one. When you said that both the 600 and the 6110 shared the same block, that pointed me in the right direction. Thanks again Roger.
