Anyone running Tunze 6201 pumps on their tank?

I was thinking of getting two for the tank I am planning, 265-300gal. (hopefully 280 wink to Joe P). I heard they are pretty big but I have some ideas on how to hide them. Can anyone comment on their performance, size etc.?
Thanks.

Amanda

Larger the tank the less you will notice them. They put out a great amount of flow.

Take a look at Mikes (Acropora nuts) Tank. He has 6200 which were replaced by the 6201s.

Paul Whitby's (pwhitby)
also is using the 6201s

I have 2 of them on my 180g, and love them. Invincible569, on this large tank forum, has them on his 300, and I think he likes em too.

Here's a way to hide them:
