Is there anyne out there who uses a Seio(s) in their nano tank?
If so which one and how do you like it? What is the current like that it produces? Im thinking about this pump for my 29gal.

Thanks

I run the Seio 620 in my 29g. I wasn't getting enough surface circulation so I'm also running a Rio 600 directed at the surface. I like the flow of the 620 it's kinda wide and gentle and you can adjust the strength of it.

I used to use a 620 in my 10g. It worked really well, just took up a lot of space. I'd say go for it!

i have two 1100s in my 20H that create some awesome random flow.... keep in mind the tank is BB and SPS only

BTW out of the box the Seios have never started back on their own up when turned off

I have a 620 in my 29. I wish I would've gotten the 800 model. The 620 moves some water, but not enough for my sps tank. The size depends on what you're keeping in the tank.

I've had the same problem. Do you know of a way to fix it?

620 in my 32g. but it's so big and ugly. i'm taking it out and going with something much smaller that can be hidden.

Let me know if you wanna sell that 620. I might be interested in it.

I have a 620 in my 38g and I need/want another one in there. It works great though, have never had any problems, has a very nice spread to it, I recommend them to anyone.

I run an 820 in my 29gal. Corals love it. Had troubles starting too. Sent one back to TAAM we'll see if they replace it.

i have an 820 in my 26 gal bowfront along with 2 MJ 900s and a MJ 600. yes, the SEIO is big and ugly in a small tank, but it sure does move a lot of water. started with just the three MJs on a Natural timer. after adding the SEIO, it's night and day.

i am having trouble positioning the pumps so that the water "bounces" properly. i think because of the bowfront. (think i'll start another thread... see if anyone else has a small bowfront with high flow.)
