Best way to run two mp40w's for SPS?

Hi all,

Picked up some MP40w's for a steal on ebay, just want to know whats the best positioning and mode for these with SPS. 90gal 3x2x2 . rockwork is up against the back glass.

I can't say I know the best way, but I have two on either side of my 150 and I run them in the purple mode (Tidal Swell), one pump set to the opposite of the other.

Basically one pump ramps slowly up to full, then back down while the other ramps up, then both ramp up to full, then both run slow for a for minutes of calm before it starts all over again. I used to run in reef crest but it always seemed like the pumps were idling.

Thanks Mark, Ill give that a try see how we go. Ive got 4 x 3000 sicce pumps also running on two wave makers, so ill be leaving those in too to get maximum mix of current directions and random currents. For 90g this will be more than enough

I have a 150 mounted one on each side. One is on constant the other is on a wave mode.
