puttputt Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 yes Alois, the 620's do put out a flow, its not comparable to my tunze's (tunzi?? ) but nor is the price. You get what what you pay for, but everything helps create the chaotic flow needed for sps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskisteve Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Thats very unlike Laguna my P6 has been running my tank for 3 yrs Cant even hear it if i stick my ear next to it! Maybe its drowned out by screaming kids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slappers Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 OK i will have to have a look at it, it sounds like a vibration coming from somewhere or the pump isn't sitting right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Most pumps can be noisy, my laguna 5 is no exception. But how long have you had it running Slappers, sometimes they quieten down after a few months anyway. But the other thing, as you said, is how it is sitting. If it's touching glass they can make a lot of noise, amazing how sometimes a pump can quiet just by moving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelers Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Do you guys put anything over the intake of your lagunas? I got a nice one off steve 2142gph and was surprised it doesnt come with an intake guard, I have heard they stop amphipods ect from getting back to the display...
