Vortechs in a 180

[platax88]

Hey guys, just curious as to what setting you run your Vtechs on a 6' tank. Here's my setup if it helps with your suggestions:

180 6'x2'x2'
Barebottom
3 pillars
sps dominated
2 Tunzes 6100 on aquasurf back side of tank making 1" wave
2 MP40s on side walls on lagoon mode, both set to master
1000gph return on penductors

I tried thee reefcrest mode on sync, antisync, masters, master/slave but it seemed weak. Looking at the chart it seems like the pump is below 50% for quite a while. Right now i am running lagoon both set to master and it seems pretty random. Just want to make sure i am using these very expesive pumps at the optimal setting.

Thanks!

I run my 2 stand alone. 1 in reef crest 100% and 1 in lagoon mode 100%

I have them on Reef Crest and have no problems. Supplemental flow with (2) Koralia #3's, that will eventually also been swapped out for vortechs.
