Hey, I have 2 koralias as well but they don't do anything fancy that I know of....lol

Will see if I can exclude the 10, haven't been overly motivated to play around with it.

ya also the koralia takes up 50% of your tank...

I personally think that any of the vortech pumps are well worth the money, just unbelievable devices.

Well we are heading to BC in a week, going to Tofino....I've already been warned...no fish stuff. I have the 2 koralias running on the 55, no problems in that tank, have the 2 40's on the 180, cyano is starting to show it's ugly head...do the pulse settings hit the sand better?

That I can't answer for ya as I still don't have my system running yet. But if you'd like to know how easy it is to remove the RF module, just use a med-sized phillips and gently remove the shell. Start by pulling the speed dial off, remove the back screws, and open the clam shell. Once you are inside be very carefull with the components ... the switches/dials are kinda flimsy.
You'll see what to remove ... it's located on an upper corner of the main PCB. Flip the PCB over and there it is. I believe it just pulls off. Wiggle it and it should come loose.

When you put it back together, make sure you gently put the wires back in so the plug fits the cut-out and slip the shell on. Install the screws and you're done.

Or buy an MP10ES when you're @ J&L and sell me your wES

not likely.....perhaps if you synced them to generate a wave.....if your not getting good circulation at the bottom of the tank with where they are, you could try lowering them a bit......thats where tunzes(or koralias) have their place
