8ft long, 4x6100, 7095. What's the optimum control settings?

TomToro · 02/23/2011, 06:45 PM

I have a 240g 24x24x96 tank and have 4 6100's, using a 7095. They are positioned at the top of each end, front and back, aiming longways in the tank (if that's clear).

I'm keeping large soft corals, lps and 6 pie plate sized anemones in there.

How should I set my 7095 to give me the best back and forth motion, but give enough burst to keep the sediment suspended?

Also, should I move the 6100's to a different position?

Thanks,
Tom

I would use Interval 2 so that each side is one channel and set a 6 hour interval with 3 second pulses from 30-100%. I think this would be ideal, but if you want a more dramatic back and forth motion, you could try a much shorter interval, perhaps 6 seconds or so.

Thanks for the help and as always great Tunze service, Roger.
