If anything it will be less flow.
i had a vortech mp40, and a hydor k3.
tunzes should be nice and quiet and provide nice alternating flow ;)
i think ill run 5000lph through each tunze constantly alternating between pump 1 and 2.
if i need to i could also leave the hydor in there to
I think you will find them to be powerful yet gentle. Great upgrade.
I want to see that Goni dance. mmm mmm mmm mighty fine :drool
I think I've got pump envy LOL

LOL, i dont run much flow! i only had my vorech at max half,
its hard to keep all the coral happy. the goni and morphs/ rhodactus's hate the flow . hammers only like moderate flow to. and i havent had an issue yet with the sps in the lower flow so i think ill keep it that way.

Out of curiosity matt, do you see any die off on the back of the goni which would not be getting much flow/light?

at the moment no as all of its body gets light. its body is around the size of a baseball. but all its tenticals extent double that. seems to be surviveing fine and folorishing i have noticed increase in tentical numbers and an increase in colouration. it definitely responds well to the variety of coral food

Looks like the scape is settling in. I cant believe how big that green morph is getting - but i thikn its the orange ones that stand out so much. The greens and purples blend in with the overall colour of the tank and then the orange just bursts out- Soooo nice mate

Nice. I ordered some server parts from the US about 10 years ago, and they shipped via FedEx - first time I'd ever seen a properly functional logistics management system. Could track it all the way across the US. It spent longer getting to me once it landed in Sydney than it spent between being picked, packed, and shipped out of the US.
Nice to see serious freight companies providing decent shipping info - gives you that bit of security of knowing where you new toys are :D
