anyone using ecotech m1 or l1 on large sps tanks?
thinking about putting one on my 210 gallon
thinking about getting m1 but not sure if its strong enough
any info would be great
thanks
Does your tank have two return and two drains? Might consider going with two pumps one for each this way you have backup just in case. If going with just one definitely the L1 over the M1. Don't forget that they come with slip connections if you need barb connections that is an extra kit you need to order.
Yes! If I were you i WOULD GRAB THE L1.... I run the m1 ON MY 120 mixed reef and it's one of the best pumps on the market for the price. Build solid and is so quiet you can't even hear it run. Also, can only turn it up to 70% without having a hurricane in my system. I had mine now running pretty close to a year and not 1 single problem.
