Re: New 215 Setup

I use the G4X as well, recirculated it, did the gate valve mod, and feed it with a maxijet 1200. I had a barracuda but found that it contributed too much heat (newer all black model without the cooling fins that the older models had) So I went to a panworld 250PS which works much better for me.

looks great.
the tunzes are they mounted with the magnets or regular mounts?
does the controller work well?
I used the magnets!! Looks cleaner... and I love the controller, lots of control!
If I used these things at 100% stuff would be flying around my tank
