Flow options.... Advise please???

hmmm... I like the CL idea. I was just concerned about having alternating flow, to keep detritus up in the water columb. I was thinking with the vortex, even without a wave controller, it would be so stong of flow it wouldnt allow for dead spots.

Ive read that the even cause undercurrent

You said you have a bar at the bottom, so that is covered, all you need it the upper flow, you could drain about 6" of water, make two or three holes in the back & plump a CL to do the rest, or just make the Manifold. I won't argue the SEIO's either, having them in the tank may be as viable.

I vote for the seio's with the seio controller!!! youll get alot of movement out of that set up and should be pretty happy with it...

if the closed loop is not an optoin!
