Tunze Turbelle
I just installed a Tunze Turbelle Stream 6080. This is an awesome pump. It doesn't have the head speed of a regular power head, which can damage corals. It uses a propeller to move water, so it moves a ton of volume but not speed. Its rated at 2250 gal/h. I bought it from MarineDepot.com.
Here's a pic...

I planed on running this one 24/7 but next month im going to install one with the controller to make surges from the opposite direction. I wanted to see what one was like. It is everything it claims. It really moves some water.
Well hopefully you will see all new pictures posted. Try posting one again.

Sorry to dig this post up but I am considering on purchasing a Tunze Stream with the single controller - Just wanted to check up on how you are finding them and if they are worth the investment. Have you found if 1 unit to be enough or would you recommend 2?

Simply awesome water movement, I only have one without a controller. I need to buy a second one because its now in my 125. When it was in my 55 I only needed the one. I know there are some other brands out there that are cheaper but I love mine.

I had 2 cap 1800's in the corners at the same time, I actually only ran the tunze 1/2 the day, had it on a timer. It really moves some water.

I think your meant to turn them off for atleast an hour everyday but I think the controller with the photosensor automatically does that for you during the night. I'll move the other powerheads to opposite the tunze when i get it ... should create some immpresive turbulence
