They are huge!- I had them, three to be precise. Then got one single MP10 and it blows all three away lol and I cant even have it full blast water jumps outs the tank!- Polys extension is ridiculous!-

Ya the powerheads I had the 750. The footprint of the 750, to the mp10 is dramatic. I was used to seeing this ugly black thing on the wall. Then when I changed over and it took my eyes off of it and on to my reef lol

The wavemaker part just means your powerheads can be set to pulse or syncronize with eachother. It makes more debris go to your filter by keeping it suspended meaning cleaner water :)

What kills me is the size of the powerhead and the current you get from these. The wet side of a Mp10 is no bigger then if you cut a tennis ball In half, & plus the motors are out side of ur tank no heat from them transfers to ur water. Big plus!-

lol yea we got good taste, the Wrasse is dope though! you need one or 5 for your tanks lol the acans are looking sweet too. I agree with reefer_mon though for a cleaner look vortechs are great, they'll just cost you a few thousand bucks in your tanks ;)

"A few thousand" this it true! Lol. My's-well get the LED light and make thunderstorms!- now the option is dope, but well cost you as well!- But just seeing your lights match up with ur wave makers & doing it all wirelessly! Swwweeetnessss!
