Hey do you guys have your koralia, nano stream, and vortech's running all day? Or do you shut them off at a certain time of the day (or night)? Thanks.

Mine nanostream runs all day but at night my controller drops it down to a certain percentage of power(less gph).

I used to keep my powerheads and returns running 24/7 in my (now Euclid's) nano.

Mine run 24/7

Now with the Vortech MP20 it is on a mode that creates random current throughout the day/night

I've got a MJ1200 and a 6025 running 24/7 in my 29g

24/7 before switching to my Vortech. Well, it's still 24/7 but it's random and has a night mode....yeah, 24/7.

The 6025 in my frag tank will be run 24/7.

Are you using night mode, Sean?

now would be a good time to do it!

I think you just hold the two buttons down at the smae time until the light starts to slowly pulse white.

Then it will only run at 50% of what you have the power set to for 11 hours......I think, it's something like that anyway.

Yup, you nailed it on the head, Glenn!
