You should give some WP40/60s a try....maybe you will change your mind

I've always had Vortechs and I now have Tunzes.
Someone posted that they were having a hard time synching the WPs together. Is this true? For the price of these pumps they look pretty sweet.

Nope, dont like waves. Makes overflows not skimm the surface as good, makes some loud, and you have to have less water in the display. Plus with my new build as it is a smaller tank i am not putting any poweheads or anything in it. Right now i am trying to come up with my own design of an alternating closed loop. Just trying to figure out how to keep fish from getting sucked to the side of the tank as it is going to suck from one end and return to the other, then alternate every 6 hours
