tunze stream pumps

im getting two of these powerheads and a controller,are they good for 125 reef tank?

[slant77]

Yes if you got the right sized ones?

[reefkeeper135]

I have 2 6101's in a 135 and love them, although I will say that they can be a bit much at times kinda sucks in a tank only 18in wide, hope to be upgrading to a 180 or 220 soon which is 72"x24"x24" that extra width will be nice

great pumps great service. What size did you get? for a 125 I'd say get a pair of 6100's or 6101's

[coralreefer2110]

I have three 6100's and a wavebox in my 220 and couldn't imagine it without them. I recommend them because you can always dial them down in strength. Better to have the option of more flow if you want it.
Just my opinion though. Enjoy.

cant agree more with "coralreefer2110" I love the pumps and just switched mine from the 24v chip to the 15v and made adjusting flow in my tank A LOT easier and since Iam planning a 180 or 220 upgrade can always change them back for the wider tank

well roger recommended 6000,i may get the 6101,but heard i would be running it on the lower volts?

Genzod66,

Go with 2 6101's and you will be perfectly happy. They would work well in your tank. You will have to search a lot to find the 6000's I would think, since they dont make them anymore.

[reefkeeper135]

get the 6101's if you want more flow just put in the 24v chip...I tried it in my tank but am happier with the 15v still great flow

[genzod66]

they have 6000s at my lfs,and 100.00 cheaper each

[poppin_fresh]

Theres not a huge difference bewteen the 6101s and the 6000's. I would save the money while they're still around.


P.S. I love my Tunzes
