tunze 6200

markandkristen · #1 09/28/2007, 11:39 AM

was curious if a tunze 6200 would be better than me running my 6 nano tunzes in my 150 48x24x30tall

just trying to see if that would be better than all these powerheads in my tank.

about 220lbs of live rock

Hello Markand Kristen My question is, do you have DSB, SSB or BB? If you are running BB, 6200 is will fine but still very strong. I used to have 4 tunze 6200 in my 4x4x2 tank and the BB always spotless. IMO, 6200 is designed for longer and wider tank.... You can get away with a pair of 6101 and controller. JMO

yeah im trying bb at the moment
they had a sale on them at a store near me and am having a few dead spots with my nanos. and it seems like thier is so many .

i can get the 6200 for 350 same price as a 6101

That is a great deal. If your tank is BB, you will be fine with the 6200 or 6201. Your tank bottom will be spotless

A 6200 should do you fine. I have one in my 54x26x26 and I am looking to get another.

are you gonna sell the nano's? i sure could use a couple more.

you'll be fine, its all about placement. I have 2 6100 and 1 6200 in my tank without any problems... and no sandstorms either.

Hi Mark, can you tell me your source for the 6200. I need to get a couple of this for my 375g.
