Mag Drice and Penductors?
I have a mag 9.5 and was wondering if I could use penductors.
With the return hose and pipe there is 5 feet of head and it T's off into 2 lockline outlets. Thanks for your help! Brian |

You can but you will not get the full advantage you would is you were using a pressure rated pump with them. You will likely see maybe 2x's the flow but not 5x's like you would with a pressure rated pump. You will also loose flow through the sump. I am basing this on seeing them run with Mags in other people's tanks. I have a couple running in my tank on my CL but they are driven by a pressure rated pump.
