BioCube - VorTech Question

Starting a new reef - Tank is a BioCube 29 gallon. I have read so much about the MP10wES Vortechs and them working together wirelessly. I have considered putting two in my new reef but not sure if that would be good or bad - great idea or crazy - ? Hoping to get some thoughts from you all.... Thanks in advance for your " vote " :)

Welcome to NJRC!

I agree with Paul. I think one MP 10 would be great for the tank. Or at the very least, just start with one and if you want more flow you could add another later.

I ran a 30g cube with one mp10 and the return whichever as more than enough. Hold out a little but if you can, with the new smaller gyre coming out you could have a choice and ,oat likely vortech will drop the price.

The new gyre I wonder how it'd be good to place in the nano, it seems like while it is smaller for a 14g - 28g tank it might still be too big :x
 
Idk if it was user error or a pos tank, but I ran a jbj 28 with two mp10s and the tank started leaking from the bottom. I ran a 30g deep blue with 2 mp10s and had no problems.

welcome!
 
Thank you everybody - I'm sending the 2nd pump back and just going with one. Thank you for the welcomes as well ! Just getting started in this hobby and am glad to have avenues like this to ask questions and get answers from reef hobbyists that have real hands on experience.
