Which circulation setup - Ocean motion, sea swirl, or tunze?

No flow loss... and love it .. No powerhead in the tank which is nice...

The new Tunze Nano Streams are only 2.7" in diameter (pretty small IMO) and put out about 1500gph. Put 4 of them in your tank, and wam. Did I mention they also only use about 8 watts of power each?

I think I will be going that route on my next tank.

Art, are you trying to talk me out of buying your OM 4-way?

 

[Kinetic]

ah... I mean, go with a OM 4way, they kick butt

And Kinetic happen to have one for sale right now.... Ummhhh Good timing..

My vote is for the new tunze nanostream with a controller.

Tunze Turbelle nanostream 6045

You should look into this.... friend of mine mentioned it to me - they can be adjusted to point the flow versus the VorTech. VorTech has not gotten around in getting the controller. And, from what I read, the people who already bought the VorTech will need to spend more money to make it work with the controller - they'll need to do some mod to the VorTech.

Hmmm, what a coincidence! Anyway, thanks Art for the extremely sturdy OM 4-ways.

Thanks everybody for your input, and the points in your posts are very helpful to me. After much going back and force, I decided OM 4 way with a Dolphin pump give me the best trade off for now. What I plan for the future is for Art to buy the new nano-Tunze, change his mind before instalation for even newer/better setups, and buy his brand new nano-Tunze for a great price .
