Question for Tunze users...

I've got a 180 gallon that will soon have a DSB. Currently I'm using dual 6100s for flow, but I feel like it's not as much as I'd like.

Would a 6200 be too much for a 6' tank with a DSB?

and part 2:

Would adding a wavebox be a good idea/bad idea with a DSB? Anyone currently using one on a tank with a sand bed? I'd love to hear some firsthand experience.

TIA

I have 2x6100's and a Wavebox on my 330 gallon (96x30x30) and I have a big ol DSB in there (about 750 pounds of Southdown). The addition of the wavebox did nothing to the sandbed. The depth of my bed varies from a couple inches in places up to 8" in others.

IMO, I don't think you need the 6200 and the Wavebox. Just get the wavebox, it will be awesome on your tank to complement the 6100's you already have.

Thanks Mike. That's exactly what I needed to hear...

I agree- just add the wavebox.
