Yup ... they sure are ... The challenge with this tank has always been the length ( 8 feet ) and finding the right amount of flow ... I have them running on 2 X Mag18's ( 2 nozzles per Mag18 ) but would like to upgrade to Mak5's or Iwasaki equivalent some time down the road ... I know that the Mag is not pressure rated but tell that to my corals/anemones/fish

Looks good Steve.

Must seem like forever to fill that huge tank up with corals.

Nice. Looks like a decent coralline growth. A friend uses the educators on his Mag 12.
