'best' 7094 configuration w/ 2x6100?

[whodah]

heya!

was hoping to get an opinion on what the 'best' configuration or at least what people seem to have the most success w/ on a 7094 w/ dual 6100's?

it's in a 240G tank, 6100 pointing diagonally toward the front/middle on each side.

i keep primarily zo's. at this point, no sps.

thx, look forward to whatchall say!

Try aiming just before the middle, 1/3rd of the way in instead of 1/2way. Either use alternating pulses so one is at low power when the other is on high or use tide mode with 3-6hr intervals. A warning on tide mode to not use this unless you have no small fish or snails or crabs which will enter the pump while off.

heya! you know what? actually that better describes how they are pointed: toward 1/3 front from the rear corners. cool, cool!

i do have small fish and wandering snails. as a matter of fact, my firefish have not come out since i added the 2nd stream and this was 6 days ago i'm starting to get worried here...

at any rate: my buddy and i tried to get the controller to do just what you described! but we coudn't seem to get that configuration to work? (w/ instruction manual in hand printed from the net)

would you mind giving a quick break down on how to do it?

for starters, should they be in channel '8' and channel '10' or channel '8' and channel '11' according to the labeling on the manual? thx man!

pulse mode use sockets 8 and 10, tide mode use 8 and 11.

 

[whodah]

cool, will give it another try tonight. thx!
