If your wanting to control speed of flow it has to be controllable Tunzes.

Yes, Mark I was reading on the 6105 and says the unit is controllable with a mulit controller... I don't know if I could get away with 1 and just use the other two smaller tunzes for regular circulation. I am getting a something between 150-200 gal.

You don't need the Apex for the smaller ones. I would just plug those direct.

With the 6105, if you are wanting to really control it with the Apex, you need another cable. I can't remember the actual name for it but it comes from Neptune. It has like a phone jack on one end and goes to 2 serial ports that plug into the Tunze cords.

I had Jennifer order the cord for me.

Its called an "Apex to Stream" cable. You can actually control 2 Tunzes per cable. Jennifer ordered mine too and they are cheap. Somewhere around $25 give or take.
