why are you ordering it from china? jabeo on ebay will have it to you in almost a day for 5$ more and a year warrenty. i already used my warrenty and i had no issues with them. That reminds me, i gotta send the old unit back.
+2 lol. jabeo on ebay FTW
Just transferred everything into my 24x24x14 35g and running the wp25 on the back wall under a ac70. On its lowest setting s3/w1 it's perfect. Also have a koralia nano 240 pointed at it from the opposite corner to mix things up a little. So far so good and when I get my 115g up and running it should work for the and hopefully by then I can link them and get a wp10 for the 35g.

So one of my 25s died last week. I'm not sure what happened. First, I noticed the controller was off. I believe I knocked the plug a bit loose when I was messing with my outlets. Got it plugged back in and the pump wouldn't turn on. Opened it up to look and can't even get it push started. Tried different power supplies and different controllers (I have a few). No go. Not really sure what else to try, but I'm ordering another one.

Would the WP25 or the 40 be best to mount lengthwise on a 6x2x1' frag tank?

I would go with the WP-40 due to the wider flow. I have 2 WP-25s on a 40g breeder frag tank, and do not like how narrow the flow is compared to my WP-40s.
how were you going to build it? i would love a less powerful wp25. i had to pull it out of my nc28 because it was too much flow. ideally the wp10 would have a smaller form factor as well.

The WP25 I ordered via Amazon came in today and that lil sucker moves some water. W1 at S1 is the limit or it goes over the sides of new my 50g (look at that despicably beautiful rock...).

I don't have details because I never designed it, but all you need is a 24v source with enough current to power X number of pumps along with a control signal for each and an IC to run the program, probably an ATmega328.
Interesting,...surprised Fish Street don't sell them.
heres a clip of it running in my 35g. its on w1/s3 but I turned the knob to about half way to get it rocking a little more. Started to blow around some sand, so I moved it up and bounced it off a rock partially.

Where in your tank did you place the 25? I just got one for my 90g and placed it on the end panel in the middle aimed across and slightly up. I realize everyone's aquascape is different, but just wondering where you ended up with just 1? Thanks!

That's basically where I have it. I had one on each side, one on W1 and one on Else. I may go back to this, but it did leave me with one on center panel pointing long ways in the tank. It's a 48x24x21 tank.
Just bought one of these and initially quite impressed. I worry a little about the pump 'shaking' itself out of the holder - which is a bit flimsy, and doesn't clamp the pump all that tightly - but it does move a lot of water. OK, it's not a vortech in terms of build quality or features, but it also isn't vortech priced either. Will see how the 25 holds up over time, but for now it works well.
