7095 controller settings

[chumm]

I am in need of recommendations for the settings for a 7095 controller with 2 6100s. I have a 215 gal tank that is 72x24x29 I believe. I plan to have mainly LPS and fishes eventually putting in a few sps. Right now, all I have is 250-300 lbs of live rock and a 3 inch sand bed. Thanks!

My general preference is for Interval 2 mode since this way the pumps are never off. I also prefer a 6hr interval since the natural interval of tides is 6hrs.

How about the power % on the different channels? and what tank location do you suggest as well as which direction should the powerheads be facing....towards each other, away from each other..etc.... Thanks for the input..

Their are two channels and each channel pulses between the top and bottom knobs except in night mode when they stay at the lower knob setting. I would set the top at 100% and the bottom at 30%. I would place each pump in the back corners aimed to the front center.

Hi Roger

Will the above work for my AGA 125 gallons SPS tank? The 6 hrs interval, does this means each pump will switch back and forth at 100% to 30% every 6 hrs? What should the pulse knob be set at?
I am sorry for all these questions, but I find the instructions with the mult-controller a little confusing.

Thanks
