    Default single vortech

    After loosing 2 fish to maxi-mods, I'm willing to pony up some $$$ for a much better pump.

    Do you think I can get away with a single gen2 on a 90 gallon (48 long and 22 tall) sps dominant tank for now? I'd love to get 2 but I really can't afford that price tag right now. Suggestions or advice would be greatly welcome.

    Do you mean the mp40w? If so then it will be more than enough. I have one on my 180 and it keeps my sps happy. I do wish I could get another one, but they are pricey.

    JC - Yeah, the mp40. Do you supplement with any other powerheads/wavemaker?

    Bird - Thanks, that's around the price I'm looking at.

    I'm still on the fence between a single mp40 or a nano wavemaker.

    No supplement besides the return pump, panworld 40px 480gph.
    $350 is a great price. I paid $420 for mine.

    JC, that makes me feel better about only getting one. I've got a similar return pump rate on mine, so sounds like it'll work. Thanks!

    Wow, the place I was looking at just added a outrageous "shipping and handling" fee, so mine would run about $50 more than Gary's. Cancelled my order and am PM'ing Gary now. Thanks for the heads up Bird.
