    I was going to use 2 Laguna 4200 pumps with my close loop but things change now i am using 4 of the new BH 2760 from Reeflo. I will start up by end of October....excited about these new 3 speed pumps it will give me 1330gph per each inlet x 8.

    Very cool design!

    Would be interesting to play with the angles a bit to create a vortex or perhaps a 50/50 angle split for an opposing turbulent flow??

    Thank you here is what one looked like in person:) DSR 90 REFUGIUM FILTER with 15 gallon refugium, vortex spinner, high flow overflow with silencer. Not bad for a 17 year old design:)
