Has anyone used a selectable power supply to turn down the power on the WP-60 like the WP-40 users have?
I ordered on for my 75 thinking on W1 S3 is should be pushing 10000 LPH vs 8000 for the WP-25 but with a much wider flow. Seeing the video posted a bit on the last page has me scared it will still be too much.

Been water testing my new tank and I have one WP60 in there for now.
It's pretty noisy imo... you can hear it ramping up and down (Else / Full Speed). Sounds like a cell phone vibrating.
Does this go away after a slim coat has begun?
Just bought some DC return pumps because the other pumps I had hummed. That bothered me, now my wife is telling me the WP60 is driving her nuts. LOL

OK great, was in the dog house when I bought the new returns for the noise that bothered me, and didn't address her noise complaint lol
Good to hear that buzz/hum goes away after a while... have 4 WP40s and 2 WP60s... would be a lot of random buzzing lol

Thanks Steve! My thoughts was: possibly twin controler might give better synchronization :beer: of two units...

Fabulous thread! I notice that most who have posted pics and videos have installed the WP60 towards the middle of one of the side panes. I imagine putting the pump in a back corner, a foot down from the top won't produce a standing wave and there will be reflection all over the place. Has anyone tried this for any length of time? It would be nice to have all the necessary flow without the pump being so conspicuous. (Just trying to play with physics!:spin3

Is this the noise you guys are hearing on new WP60s?
They've been in the water a few days and it's driving me nuts...
Should this go away after a slime coat builds up?

I installed a WP60 in my 75g tank. I bought the new controller (which can work with a single pump). I run it on W1 on the second lowest speed. It works great. Before this I had 2 MP-40's and a WP10 and would have cyno all over the tank. With this pump, and it's wide flow I have had none in the last 2 weeks.
It is also quite with the lower speed setting. The new controller allows for a lower flow than the standard controller.

Wow, that is really loud. I don't run mine on full blast but that seems extreme. Sounds like the pump noise is being amplified.
