Have the mp providing flow for my frag rack with acans montis and a jack o lantern. Have it set up in conjunction with my vectra on a closed loop with two sea swirls. Eco tech flow baby

My current mp10qds are in my 65 gallon system, on sides of aquarium on opposite corners. This was found after trial and error of rock work, fish hides and dead spots. Having this placement creates a counter clockwise flow that reaches all parts of the tank without disturbing fish hangouts. The two modes that work best for me is gyre and reef crest, just enough turbulence off the rocks creates a sway, for my softies. I'm entering this contest because I'm upgrading my tank from 65 to 150 making a mp 40 a perfect fit. Thank you for having such a giveaway! Your pumps and back battery are fantastic.

I'm no photographer but here's a quick tour. This is also a few weeks after that nasty crash I had.

150 Gal Mixed reef
I currently have an older Vortec MP40 but I am not able to use this with my Reef Link. It would be very nice to upgrade the one I have as well as adding another one would allow me to remove the two jebo pumps I am currently using ,

MP10 in a Nuvo10, great flow in current position at 30% reefcrest mode

 

[aquaterra]

3x MP10s along the back wall of my 40B. You can't even tell that they're there! I alternate through all the settings through the day and control the vortechs with my apex. 85-100% max. There is another mp10 in the sump below for extra circulation.

BONUS ENTRY #1
Left side is an MP10 slightly towards the top and back of the tank Right side is an MP40 slightly towards the front of the tank and centered top/bottom.
Most of the time they run ReefCrest in sync. Occasionally I'll switch it up with Lagoon or NTM modes.

BONUS ENTRY #2
ReefCrest starting up after feed mode. The fish enjoy the second feeding as the food is stirred back up.

I have a Mp40qd but could use one more especially if it's a Ecotech product They have the most amazing circulation pumps

 

[Chac317]

Have two mp40s and an mp10 on the back. Would love to replace the mp10 with another mp40 though

 

[Matt40gIMFusion]
