Hey reefers,
I just purchased two mp10's and the battery backup system and hooked it up to my reef. First impressions were:
-Lots of power! I am glad I got the tens as I have them dialed back to 50% and they are still whipping my corals around more than they may like. I have a 5 foot 140 gallon tank and this is to much flow. I can't imagine having the mp40's on there!
-They are noisier than I hoped and do clutter up a very clean setup on the outside.
Battery backup is crazy heavy (car battery heavy) but works great after a test, basically plug and play!
Finding setting recommendations has been harder than I thought! If you guys could post any recommendations or what you are using that would be great!
Here's a video of my tank pre-pumps:

Thanks for the help,
