Vortech Postitioning and settings

[Tonyscoots84]

Hey guyz i was wondering what is the best setting and positioning for a standard 120 gallon 4' tank... anyone have any really good settings that would really move the water but not annoy the crap out of the coral :scratch:
TIA

The only standard 120g is an empty one. Every tank will have different aquascaping as well livestock requirements. Both of which will have drastic effects on a powerhead's performance. Even two "SPS" tanks will have different positioning for their Vortechs. Your acros may be on the top left of the tank and want high flow where someone else's may be located bottom right.

Experimenting with various settings and positions will give you the "sweet spot" :flirt:
There are few shortcuts in reefing.

Well said,
I've seen two or three on the back glass. Two on one side, one high on one side and one low on the opposite side, two low on one side, etc.

Go nuts!

if you can get two with the wireless drivers you can put one on each side and put them on the master slave alternating back and forth creating a wave environment
