I currently have standard 3/4'' locline on my Over the top Closed loop (8 out lets) I am looking for more of a ocilating/wavemaker type flow but I want them all to be running constantly so I need some kind of sweeping outlets I saw this brand Ocean Currents but cant find a retailer for them does anyone know where to buy them at or any other similar sweeping style outlet for a closed loop such as this.......

That reminds me off the 1000 gal. bait tubs on the pier that my uncle owned.
Sorry off topic. But it looks way cool. Brings back memories...

this picture is when the tank was still in my garage as I was designing the system. so there was no locline on the closed loop, and that was a fresh water leak test...

Thanks

Matt, you could probably create an alternating current scenario in your tank with your existing CL if you threw a SCWD and check-valve on it.....

(With a check-valve in place the flow would switch between the red outlets and green outlets when the SWCD switches.)
 
I guess you have to call to buy them? there is no price or add to cart button on them...

Matt


They may not be available yet...I know Premium Aquatics did that with their nano streams showing the info on them, but didn't have them in stock. I guess you'll have to call to see what they say:)
