Never asked as its been a couple yrs since I bought it.

I am also thinking it might be easier to switch out the 4ways to squids if I can find them.

SCWDs steal 30% of the flow to operate though.

All good links, thank Myka but I am 100% positive all of them are referring to the 3/4" model not the 1" model. Also this chart that was linked On the nano-reef site shows that @ 720 GPH in you get 660 GPH out which makes it only 10% loss. I will be running a much bigger pump then that.

I think I might order one & test it out on my current tank to get at least a first hand testing & if it doesn't work well for my big tank it should be just fine for my seahorse tank.
