Nano Wavebox & Stream 2 6105 THEY'RE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

[reefkoi]

Roger told me its the way they designed it, he said something about the displacement of the water in the box being the biggest factor I think, maybe he'll chime in here............

If it's not too difficult why not try it and let us know if it performs in the back out of the way?

Off topic, I notice our friends from Europe often use the "@"Name in their posts when addressing someone. What does that mean? Just curious.

@Stevenx2:
Did you ever have a Stream 1 to compare noise levels to?

 

[Stevenx2]

@sjm817:
The '@' always gets used in our forums when you address someone. Just so the guy knows you mean him. Well it is obvious when you type his name, that the he is meant. The '@' is just meant to stress that.
Yup been using Stream 1's up to now. 6100.1 that are looking for new homes now . And yes the Stream 2 is - at the moment - louder than the 6100. But let's give it a week chance.

@Stevenx2:
Thanks! Please let us know on the noise comparison between the 6100 and 6105 once it breaks in. This is of particular interest to me.

Stevenx2, the wave in your tank is not at the right frequency. It still oscillating a bit. Play around with your controller a bit more till you get a uniform of wave going up and down consistently.

Scott, i have the 6085 which i test run in the past couple months. It is super quiet compare to the old version stream or the nano stream. No start up noise at all.

As far as the concern on the wire, they cannot make the cable come out through the back because it will get in the way when you try to turn the pump.

 

[Stevenx2]

Thanks!! I'll try playing with the settings tomorrow when the lights go on again. Hmmm, maybe it just looks like that, because the 6105 is pointed towards the surface a bit?

 

[Jar*Head]

Stevenx2, your wave should look like this. but smaller wave....



Here is the wave with 4 tunze stream 6201 running

 

[Stevenx2]

Geez that first wave is huge! Not to mention that clam in the second film!
I'll try the settings tomorrow!
Does the 6105 pointed a bit at the surface and facing the Wavebox (set to the side though) pose a big problem?
Guess it will be a trial-and-error session tomorrow...

 

[Jar*Head]

It will not affect the wave if you have the 6105 pointing upward. Just take your time and dial in the wavebox. I highly recommend to turn off the stream before you start to play with the wave....

Any update?

I just got the nano wavebox, what should the water height be on the box, I have the box sitting 1/4 out of the water.

the box is on a 60L X 24W X 20 H

 

[ClownReef®]

Hey guys! I was waiting for the wavebox to be for sale!

Do you guys think it would work on my 30x30x15 rimless tank?!?!

Thanks!

 

[Jar*Head]

Paul, you should see a water line indicator on the wavebox.

Clownreef, it should work on your cube...

 

[Paulairduck]

I am going to go look, Thanks

Paul

 

[Paulairduck]

the nano's must not have a waterline, at least mine does not.

the box is sticking 1/4 inch out of the water.

 

[MarcoPolo]

can someone help me here? I cannot see any pictures - is there some setting I must choose on my RC to view pics?? I also soon want to start posting pics of my tank powered by Tunze, but if I can't see the pics ...

 

[Stevenx2]

Hi!

Update:
I think I have managed to tune the wave a bit better. I've just still got this feeling that the Nano stops flowing half a second to early. I dunno, guess there is a bit of an adjustment still necessary...
Concerning the noise, hasn't changed a bit yet, but it hasn't been in for a week yet.

The Nano doesn't have a water line. According to Tunze the best height is about 1" above your water line (without the Nano Box switched on). Hope I could help.

Clownreef, I am also sure it would work on yours!

I'm gonna try play with the settings later today, but I have to go to work soon and don't know how long I'm gonna be away today. But I will keep you posted!

 

[Jar*Head]

Keep on turning that knob Steven. If you feel that the wavebox stop too early, which mean your wave isn't consistent yet...

Paul, idealy 1/2-3/4". If you see bubble shooting out and gurgling sound in your box which mean your pump running dry and the box is too high

Marco, wish i could help but i am terrible with computer. I think your computer doesn't support photobucket just like my work computer...

 

[Stevenx2]

Hi Steve!
It's difficult to describe, let me try it this way. The Nano blows enough water but the break between 2 phases should be a bit longer. Hope you know what I mean?

got mine today....
