Can the Tunze Nanostream be ran on the multi timer setting of the Reefkeeper II?

I don't know the answer to the question, but I watched you photoshow! Awesome stuff, a year does make a difference!

The Tunze nano streams cannot be run a timer unless they will be off for like 15 minutes min I think. I do know it is not recommended to run them this way.

Framer - Thanks!

crazy - I can set the time to leave them off for 15 minutes. It is really noisy when it starts up and I don't know if there is a problem inside the pump or if it just shouldn't be run that way.

This e-mail is the Tunze rep. BTW, Roger is great! He also just replaced my mounting bracket that broke (N/C)!

On start up they correct direction which can be a noisy process, the prop flies out, hits the front cover and in falling back gets the correct rotation direction. This does result in wear so it is not recommended to cycle them on and off any more than once every 15 minutes. This is normal as long as they are reasonably quiet in operation.
