Tunze 6000, 6100 or Wavebox 6212

[reef_doug]

For a 180g Bowfront tank (72" x 29high x 18+) which would be my best choice for intank wave like circulation .
I've heard excellent reviews on the Tunze items.

I would like to get the polyps and softies swaying naturally back and forth.

Would the WaveBox 6212 be good, or should I consider 6000 or 6100 w/ a Tunze 7095 controller down the road, I like the expandability aspect. If so would the 6000 be good or should I seriously consider the 6100?


Thanks
Doug

I wished I had got the 6100. I have a 6' tank and I think I need to upgrade. Go with the 6100 if it's too much someone will trade you.

You can always turn it down so that the maximum flow is at like 75% or whatever.

Is it a softie tank? A wavebox would really get the softies moving, but most people prefer the wavebox plus powerheads.

From now on, i'm going to put a wavebox in every single tank that I setup. One of the best things ever made IMO. I would still use another ph for additional water movement though.

Yinger, you such a brown noser hahaha. I can't help but agree with Yinger. Wavebox is the best piece of equipment for a reef tank. I have two in my cube along with three stream. I love it. By the way, the sand actually stayed in the bottom of the tank not the middle. Thanks god
