Room Divider with Tunze

[whimplet]

I have a 48x30x30 aquarium that I would like to use Tunze with to create my circulation.

The tank is meant to be viewed from 3 sides. One 30" side will be against the wall, and the overflow is centered on this side as well, leaving ~12" on each side of the overflow box.

I am considering 3 options:
Either a TS-24 kit
Or
a single Wavebox
Or
a wave box with a Stream 6000 and 7095 controller.

For all options I would mount the pumps next to or on both sides of the overflow.

Aside from advice on which option is best, I have 2 specific questions.
Question 1 is general to all three options:
I won't want to put any pumps on the other end of the tank. Would this be sufficient and ok e.g. pumps at 1 end?
Question 2:
Is the multi-controller 7095 able to control the wavebox 6212 and the Stream together? Does the Wavebox work with this controller?

I have a very similiar setup. I'm running a 6100 on each side of the overflow using Interval 2 on the 7095. However, my tank is a 72" bare bottom so I also have my pump returns on the other (visible) side of the tank. However, with only 48", I think two streams next to the overflows would be sufficient.

Good point...

I should add that this is going to be a reef tank with DSB and lightly filled with Live Rock (120lbs or so)

I was thinking that I could run my return with a SCWD and put it under the DSB bringing it out of the sand in the 'other (viewable) end' facing back towards the wall and the Tunze pumps. The return would be something like a Rio 32HF.

For a 4ft long tank a TS24 is an aweful lot of flow. For the wavebox to work on that tank it has to go on one of the ends no more than 24" from the front or back, i.e. it can't be in the corner as the tank is too wide. I think a 6000 and a wavebox is the best choice. The wavebox has to have its 6091 controller but this can be networked with the 7095.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Sorry my bad, I meant the TS-12 not the TS-24.

I guess my final real question is this:
Is having any of the Tunze products at only one end of tank ok?

Or other suggestions to make a clean room divider look?

Yes, a wavebox and TS07 should be fine with a good return pump.
