if you get bubbles from the cl look to the locline out of the water

Yeah, i'm not done with the loc-line Mike. This was just for the wet test in the garage. I was wanting to keep the water inside the tank and didnt really care about all the bubbles caused by the current vortexes.

i am very interested in the ocean motion device so when you get it all setup i would like to know if you still think its worth the money.

Wood,
to be honest with you, I love this thing! Its very well made, and well thought out. Its basically just a rotating motor (1 rpm) connected to a drum with holes cut in the sides. The drum rotates inside a housing which also has threaded holes/outlets cut into it. When the holes line up, water flows out. When the holes overlap, water flows out of more than one hole. The engine is a pretty hard core....I cant remember how many revolutions its engineered for, (a couple of years worth at least). If the motor burns out or stops rotating, water will still flow out of whatever ports the drums stopped on. Its designed to never be without at least one port lined up for flow, (although you order it to have more than one port open at all times if you wish). So your pump wont burn out if the OMmotor malfunctions. All you do in that case is get another motor. It screws right into the existing OM body and off you go. You dont even need to get wet since the motor turns the internal drum by a magnet so its not directly connected to anything wet.
Paul, (the manufacturer) has excellent service and will cheerfully speak to anyone about his product. I have also been sent an upgraded/improvement package since purchasing my OM unit even though it wasnt even set up. Paul had made some minor improvements to the OM units and just sent me the upgrades free of charge. You just can go wrong with this thing.....
But thats just my opinion. I would certainly reccomend this product to anyone wanting more flow in their tank. Think SCWD only industrial and all but bullet proof.
