Is that a 60 nozzle on a 40 body? ------------- - My Current Tank: 65g Starfire (sitting empty for 2+ years) - * Marine & Reef tanks since 1977 * |

Looks great!
Hey Kody, I am loving the wp40 in my 90
Do you think a 60 would be too much?
I mean, they are almost the same price, and the 60 really isn't that much bigger in size than the 40, is it? ------------- - My Current Tank: 65g Starfire (sitting empty for 2+ years) - * Marine & Reef tanks since 1977 * |

Its 1/4" taller is all I haven't even ran it yet I ordered 3 and I was worried about the wp40s pushing 3ft and stirring up the sand so I was being bored early this morning and wondering how hard it would be to get a wider pattern out of the wp40s and there you have it problem solved. Id just throw a wp25 on the other side and call it a day im more in pressed with it then the wp40s to be honest small compact and powerful ------------- http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=60612&title=kody72-fishroom" rel="nofollow - KODY72 FISHROOM BUILD 281g DT 187g Rimless Frag ATI PM lighting SRO DSCR-300ext 8013908179 |

I was just thinking of substituting 60 instead of a 40 - so limiting it to just the 1 pump in the tank
IMO the 40 really doesn't take up too much space in the tank... but that is because I only have just the 1 pump. I'd like to stay away from adding a 2nd pump if I could
Honestly, I am very happy with the output on the 40... I just figured that I could maybe push it a little more with a 60
Interesting how, pricewise, the 25, 40 and 60 are all like within $10 of each other ------------- - My Current Tank: 65g Starfire (sitting empty for 2+ years) - * Marine & Reef tanks since 1977 * |

Bob I throw in the wp60 and it blow the sand bed from one end of the tank to the other so I would say its a no go for you. Plus its loud I hope it quites down it sounds like the string on a weed wacker when its spinning ------------- http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=60612&title=kody72-fishroom" rel="nofollow - KODY72 FISHROOM BUILD 281g DT 187g Rimless Frag ATI PM lighting SRO DSCR-300ext 8013908179 |
