You can run one of them in NT mode if your on a small tank. I don't see why not.

Two pumps on a 2x2x2 in NTM mode will be perfect! Try running them with one pump set as the opposite side in NTM mode. The pumps will basically be in anti-sync and it should work really well. NTM is a great mode.

do you mean by setting in NTM mode, the pumps are defaulted in anti-sync mode ?

In the two ES modes (NTM and Tidal Swell) the pumps don't have sync/anti-sync, instead the sync'd modes are based around which side of the tank the pump is on. So if the master is on the right side of the tank, you would set the first slave to orange which means it will run a program designed for a pump on the left side of the tank. If you have a third pump you could set it to run a program designed for a pump on the back side of the tank.

First you assign it as a slave pump then hit mode.
