Default vortech mpw es10

so i am considering runnin a vortech mp10 in my red sea max 130d is anyone running this yet i would like to hear what you think? all the reviews are great the only thing i can see is the noise at 100% power maybe this is an alignment issue, some claim the mp20 is the way to go in the max. my max is coral dominated so i don't think i need anything too crazy.
thanks.

i have a 10 and a 20 and the main difference i have found is the impeller size. the 10 puts out a jet stream where as the 20 is a bit more wide spread.... i have found the 10 to pull very hard inwards in order to produce the flow and i have had to pull a mangled sandsiftng star out of my 10 on may occasions.

My 2 cents.....
