    Got more supplies in including MP10 and RO/Di

    My first question is what settings do most of you guy/girls use on the mp10. Also when I get a second one is it better to sync or anti sync them, and what setting.

    Also I flushed my BRS RO/DI it is the Plus model 75gpd, but the pressure stayed around 48psi and i was wondering if that is ok? It read 3 TDS In and 0 TDS Out after I flushed it for around 2 hours. I will cut the extra line they give down to size and see if that helps the pressure.

    Hey Ryan conratz on coming back! I always wanted a rimless, great choice!

    Nice! I had one MP on my 90 for a while and came across another one later on and I love having two! I was very surprised when I have asked the same question about the VorTech owners settings on this thread, turned out, ReefCreastMode is the most popular one! And I love it as well :p I still use the Short Pulse Mode to lift up some crap off the sand bed once or twice a day, but the RCM is the main setting right now.

    Its completely normal and 48psi is actually pretty good pressure, and there is really nothing you can do about it, unless you wanna boost the pressure to make way more RODI with an add-on booster pump.

    Post a pic or two when you receive the tank!

    When the two (or more) MPs are on the same wall, the setting should be Synced, but for most people including myself, tend to place the one pump on one side and another one on the other, and set Anti-Synced. The anti-sync setting means master pump's at 80% of the flow, the slave's at 20% with the RCM :)
