For those of us that have these pumps and are using 2 I am curious to know what you have your settings on to give you the best flow throughout the tank? These pumps are very powerful so I have to point mine toward the top so it's not blowing my corals or sand all over the place but I am concerned with dead spots. I am running 2 wp-40's on a custom 240 gallon. Not your typical 6 feet long. Mine is 60x36x25. Overflows are both on the side in the middle so tank is seen clearly from both sides. Thank you

I use w1 setting so I can use the knob. What I recommend for tanks where dead spots might be an issue is some wp10's in those areas. You actually might benefit from the new RW series so you can link multiple pumps together.

Every day of the week I change the settings on each so there are different movements each day. In this way all parts of the tanks get some sort of flow and everything gets stured up evenly. I have the new RW but don't sync them because they do the exact same thing at the same time and counter the effect. I do love the under tow they create though. Hope this helps.
