I'm making a spreadsheet with the electricity consumption of varies aquarium devices to help me plan my next tank and wanted to see if anybody in San Antonio that lives by the NorthWest side of town had a Sequence Barracuda or a Sequence Hammerhead hooked up and running so that I could measure the watts used by the pump @ the given head pressure. I know Sequence has a graph, but if their graphs are like Dolphin's then they will be way off. This will aid in finding the most efficient pump for my tank.

That's not too far and it will be a good excuse to take a look at that nice tank of yours. Let me know when would be a good time?

Thanks.

I'm using a KillaWatt
