Tunze rock use?

[mboley1]

Going to put 4-6000's in a 150 gallon 5 ft tank with the 7095 controller. Wanted to hide two pumps at one end down low in your Rocks, blowing across the lenth of the tank. But how do then maintain the pumps. can you slip them out of the front of the rock without having to move the rock? and how well do the rocks attract Coralline Algae? If they are sitting right on the substraight will they kick up sand?

Finally, on this set-up do the pumps plug into the controller and there is just one plug for the contrller or does each pump have a plug, and how big a hole is needed in the Eurobrace on my tank for cord pass thru? that's it. Thanks

No clue about the rock.

Each pump has a blue driver box. From the driver box, you have 1 cord per pump going to the controller. But these is all in your stand or wherever. So really, you'll have 4 cords.

Coming off the pump it goes straight into the driver, but you can disconnect the cord from the driver by opening up the driver. You'd have to disconnect all your drivers to put it through a hole, and I'd say a 1" hole would be plenty (you could get by with 3/4", but I'd rather have too much)

the rocks have a metric pvc couple in the face which the round output collar slide into. In order to service the stream, you'll have to turn it over, so dont put anything (bulky, at least) on top. The material is a very porous ceramic material that attracts corraline well.
