Anyone here using the Seio Controller I got mine in today have it pushing two 1500 Seio's. Wow, that it alot of flow in my 90 gallon, I didn't get the instruction book with mine that I can find and was hoping someone was using them and could tell me the settings they are using. I will say they definately alternate the flow in the tank now. I am not sure that my Torch will be able to handle this much flow. By the way I may have two Seio 620's with magnets up for sale here real soon.

I found these instructions online. They're pretty generic so I doubt they help you much.
I've got a Seio 1100 on my 40g that really moves the water. I'd like to get a controller for it, but it would stretch my reefing budget a good bit :rolleyes:

Intended for use with only SEIO water pump models: 1100, 1500, & 2600
The controller will control one or two SEIO Super Flow Water Pumps. The pumps can be set to go from low to high; this surge can be set from 15 seconds to 30 minutes. The pumps on low operate at approximately 50% flow and then will ramp up to 100% when on high. There are also two preset feeding buttons at 8 minutes and 16 minutes. Once the time has elapsed the unit will go back to the original preset.
Note: Replaceable fuse 2.5 amp/250v
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION SAFEGUARDS AND SAFETY GUIDELINES:

Do not operate the SEIO controller with any other type of pump.
Mount controller where it will not come in contact with moisture or water.
Mount the controller securely above the aquarium.
Prior to maintenance on any electrical aquarium appliance or maintenance to the aquarium, you must disconnect all electrical aquarium devices.
Routine maintenance is required to ensure the maximum performance and the longevity of the controller and SEIO water pumps. See maintenance guidelines in SEIO water pump instructions.
The use of a surge suppressor is strongly recommended.
A drip loop must be used when plugging all electrical aquarium devices. The drip loop is that part of the cord which hangs below the level of the receptacle.
You must verify that the receptacle is clean and free of moisture at all times. The receptacle must be free of water, salt and calcium.
Do not deviate from the Safeguards and Safety Guidelines
The national code requires that a GFCI be utilized in the branch circuit which supplies electrical power to the aquarium pump and all other electrical aquarium devices.
Clean the controller as needed to keep unit free of dust and al deposits


INSTALLATION

Find a dry area to mount the controller. Secure the controller above the aquarium/water level. Area must be well ventilated. Never place controller under or inside the aquarium cabinet.
Plug one or two pumps directly into the controller.
While the unit is off, plug the controller into a GFCI electrical receptacle.
Turn the controller ON. The screen will now read 15 and the yellow second LED will be lit.
Press the set button until the desired time parameter is set. The yellow LED is for seconds and the red LED is for minutes.
Once the desired time is set, press the auto button. Once set, the time screen will switch off.
When feeding, press the auto button then press the desired feeding time.
 
Mariner, I can see you get less sleep than I do ;) As for the directions those are on the back of the box now that I have gone back and read all of it. Thanks .
 
ZaoZao, I will take 75 for both powerheads and both sets of magnets. If you still want them let me know.
 
DOG GONE I always miss these deals...I was surfing thru sponsers looking at pumps when this went down :( just my luck
 
Sorry Rugdog, keep an eye out. What are you looking for that might get folks to email you with some. I will say that Sarris has some of the better pricing on seios and magnets if that is what your looking for and you probably wouldn't have to pay shipping if you picked them up. http://www.skilosreef.com
 
I am fixing t buy a pump and rock to get a 110 going...i went to sarris the other day and they had no dry goods. they must order everything?
 
He may have been sold out, granted I ordered mine from him and had him ship it because I got the controller and all, but a friend told me he seen them in the store as well. Shipping to me was like 2 days and was cheaper than driving over there for me.
