    I just ordered a vortech MP10. I remember telling myself only an idiot would pay that much for a stupid pump, well mine's on the way now.LOL Supposed to be here on the 26th.

    I got a smoking deal though and the reason for this thread is to pass it along. I found a site where you can get the MP10s for only 170.00 shipped.That's 30.00 bucks off and free shipping. The site is Saltwater Critters, Reef Aquariums & Fish Supplies, Saltwater Products & Accessories - VorTech MP10 Propeller Pump

    And the coupon code is MP10SPECIAL

    Man I'm so exited. I feel like a kid on Christmas day. I have been wanting one of these for a long time and found this deal and just couldn't pass it up.

    My 20L, but I have seen these run on a 40B which I have also and it looked good on it. I don't think I'd go any bigger tank wise than that though.


    Is that Drop Dead Fred? LOL I haven't seen that movie in YEARS.

    Thats what I was getting at, hence the serious "Robert" terminology.

    I think that all vortechs have the battery backup but I may be mistake.

    WOO HOO I got it in yesterday! This thing rocks. At under half way turned up it rocks the water in my tank. I would post a vid, but I can't right now. My comp went down. I just got it up and the pages are super big, it'll let me post pics but no vids.

    I'll get one up as soon as I figure this damn thing out.

    Sorry, just saw this now.
    It's the Vortech battery backup from EcoTechMarine.
