Which the best configuration and position (6000 and 7200)?

[fernando]

I am mounting an aquarium with 160mm x 70mm x 70mm (63"x 27"x27") - 784 liters (207 gallons). For aquascaping and circulation of the returns, I intend that it is approximately as the drawing:

The returns will be lateral. One with half of a Mak 4, that I esteem in 500 gallons (1900 liters), considering the loss of the distance between the bomb and the return (3 meters of distance and 170 mm. of height) - another half of the flow demanded for Mak 4 will go for another linked aquarium.

The other lateral return will be supplied by half of a LG 3 MDQX-SC (esteem in 450 gallons - 1700 liters, the 6 ft of height), to another half of this flow will be supplied to the other linked aquarium.

( About my system Yemanjá Reef Microcosmo )

The Overflow will be central, in the deep ones of the aquarium. Aquascaping of the alive rocks will be approximately as of the drawing.

I intend to usethe superior part of the rocks for SPS's. The aquarium will be prioritary for hard corals (sps's and lps's), but also with soft corals in lesser ratios.

I have two Turbelle 6000 Stream and a Turbelle Eletronic 7200, with multicotroller 7094. Stream 6000 in each lateral was thinking about placing the two, in the way it glass.

I used the returns for a flow inside similar to the one of the drawing, making a circular movement of the display.

He would like opinions on as to direct the flow of the 6000 and to place and to direct the flow of the 7200. E which would be the programming optimum that could adopt in multicontrolller, thinking about this configuration of system?

Thanks.

I would place a 6000 on each end aimed across and use Tide mode with short intervals of say 15 minutes. The 7200/2 should be run the same but used to focus more flow where it is needed, you will have to base this on where high flow corals are placed and rock structures.

Thanks Roger.

On the variation of power of Stream 6000: you recommend to the 30% variation the 100% during the cycle of each one?
The same power could be adopted by the 7200/2 (30% the 100%)?
The 7200/2 could be on enter the intervals of each Stream or the ideal would be it to go beating of uninterrupted form and in set with the Streams?

Multicontroller makes possible this programming: 1 stream to each 15 minutes and the 7200/2 beating with variation of its power?

Regards. Fernando

I would use the sockets as follows- Stream R, 7300 L, 7300 Right, Stream Left. Then use tide mode and you will have on one Stream and one 7300 and you will set the pulses I would do 50%-100%. Then, the other pair will take over. I would use a 15 minute interval.

Roger,
Thanks your attencion.
