Ecotech Marine VorTech MP10 Propeller Pump

Designed especially for nano-reef aquariums, the MP10 from EcoTech Marine is a small yet powerful pump. The MP10 is ideal for tanks from 2.5 to 50 gallons tanks. Creates gentle flows of 200 to 1,575 gallons per hour, helping the tanks feel more like the ocean.

The MP10 shares the same award-winning technology as the MP40w and lets you take full control of the flow. With all the electrical components outside the aquarium and a variety of easy-to-program modes, the VorTech is the safest, most versatile pump on the market.

Specifications:
    Flow: 200 to 1575 gph
    Wattage: 8 to 18 watts
    Maximum Tank Thickness: 3/8"
    Appropriate Tank Size Range: 2.5 to 50 gallons
    Dimensions: Wet Side- 2.5" diameter by 1.5" long, Dry Side - 2.5" diameter by 2" long
    Clearance Needed Behind Aquarium: 2.25"

Operational Modes
    Feed Mode - Slows down your pump for 10 minutes to allow you to feed your aquarium.
    Constant Speed Mode - The pump runs at a constant speed you set based on your aquarium’s specific needs.
    Reef Crest Mode - Automatically simulates the high-energy conditions of a natural reef crest environment.
    Lagoon Mode - Automatically simulates a calmer, lagoon reef environment.
    Short Pulse Mode - Allows for wave pulse timings between 0.3 and two seconds, enabling the creation of FAST alternating flow throughout the tank.
    Long Pulse Mode - Allows for wave pulse timings of between two seconds and 60 seconds, enabling the creation of slow alternating flow throughout the tank.
    Night Mode - Enables the pump to operate for 14 hours in whichever mode is selected for the day and go back to Night Mode for 10 hours.
    Pump Disconnect - Automatically shuts down the system if the wet and dry sides become separated.

Comments: I got the pump up and running in no time. After experimenting for a few days I decided on the reef-crest mode.I have a Red Sea 34 cube and the flow on low is just fine. The corals seem to like the pump action. Night mode works well(although I don't see much difference) and the feed mode is great. Also it is as quiet as can be. The fellow who says his is loud must not have it lined up properly. GREAT PRODUCT!!!
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I just received this today and put it in my Elos Mini. It was like Ecotech designed this pump for this tank. With a couple buttons and some fine tuning of the dial, I have a nice standing wave. Took less than 10 minutes to setup and dial-in.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
