You cannot really compare the tunze to the vortech.
Vortech- pro's -Wide flow -multiple modes -no heat transfer -less intrusive -adjust able flow, and under current helps with to suspend nutrients -no wires in tank Cons -noise -price -no directional Tunze- pros -price point flow where you want it -dead silent Cons -tanks up more tank real-estate and wires -non-controlable it would be better to compare a tunze 6055 and a controller (either tunze or a apex, profilux) to the vortech. and look at the pros and cons of both.

even the 6015 i bought to use in my 28g nanocube was too direct in terms of flow. it was a cheap attempt but in the end it was a waste of $40 before i picked up an mp10. the mp10 works perfectly for me and i'm using it on my new tank as you mentioned. well worth the investment.

Hi:
I heard a few negatives about the noise of the MP10. The tank is in my TV room beside my couch. Right now the most noise is coming from my Aquamaxx HOB 1 skimmer and second are the stock fans in the hood. I am looking at options to replace the fans with quieter ones. Could someone comment on the noise when the pump is running at a steady state and in some of the other modes. Thanks,

i use whichever mode slowly ramps up/down and i max out at about 70%. it was in my living room and was totally fine. not silent by any means but something none of us even noticed after the first day. i have loud kids so YMMV lol.
if you let these things pulse it's far more noticeable.
