Oh my... and I was just contemplating if I should get an MP 20 or not. This is so timely... I'm getting excited. Let's wait and see when's the soonest time our LFS could get hold of them.

Hohoho...

vortech pump. simply the best. pricing also best (but it's indeed worth it), i think the fish inside for part 2 will need sea sick medicine.

I AM GETTING POISON.. ARHHHH

wa lau eh, the wave like that how to use in my JBJ nano? Fill up with half tank of water? In part one, that kind of strength how to keep lps?

If that is the power, then i suggest they start R&D for MP5 or MP2.5 then it will truly cater to nanos.

[peacemaker]

Can adjust mah...

For demo, I'm sure it is cranked to its fullest to display its potential.

honestly, i wont use it for nano, getting return pump x 2 is enough haha. if put that inside sure washing machine liao

mp10 i will use it for 4 feet tank AHAHHAHA given its power.

MP20 not sufficient for 4ft, so MP10 no need to test liao !

Hi bro,

You will not get that strong wave If you put it in Reef-Crest Mode.

I'm using MP20 in my RSM tank for almost a year liao...and I'm happy with the performance.

If I'm not wrong...they are using Short Pulse Mode with max speed !

[onizukaa]

ic, thought that from their videos post online by those mp20 owners, the wave they create is huge... hmm , but none the less, its a super good "wavemaker" haha

Heehee, i know la. Just exaggerating only. But seriously speaking, if i were to tone down too much, then what is the point to spend so much money when i can just use a few hydro nano? Otherwise, i think Tunze nano might be a better choice too. Moreover, i feel that Vortech's edge over tunze is only the wave mode. Without that or if i am not using that mode, then Tunze is still my first choice.

Btw, have they made the effort to include a light sensor like tunze so that changing of nigh modes can be automatic rather than having to turn it manually every night? I mean, technology is only cool if it can be automatic. Especially at the kind of price they are selling, i think it is only fair to consumers.

I understand this, but then if the max is not suitable for nano, then they should not be marketing this as a nano wavemaker? If it is so over powered, then they should design one that is alot more toned down and selling it at a price a lot lower. Say 'yes' everyone!. Why should we pay more for power we don't need or for that matter, cannot even use? Say 'yes' everyone! . Would you pay more for a car that claims to have a seat warmer to keep u warm in Singapore? You will not. Would you pay more for a tap for ur bathroom sink that has a mouth so big 2 buckets of water can flow through it in a second? You would not too!

My point is, they should start making a TRUE nano wave maker. Is everyone with me? *clap clap clap. thank you......

Siow one. Sorry. Just bored...heeeheeehee

Min 500 gph and they say it can be used for a 2.5gal tank? Put rocks and fake corals with no livestocks issit? Can these manufacturers stop showing us that they really don care if we understand what they are selling? Can they stop thinking that all reef keepers are idiots?

Tunze controllable nanostream is not chear either !

Regards to nite mode, Vortech will auto turn on/off after you pre-setted the nite mode feature. Duration is 10 hrs on nite mood after that back to 100% flow rate. It also has feeding pause mode like tunze mah !
