...about 4 penductors on a pcx-70?

My buddy is setting up a 210 and we're wondering if he should go with 4 penductors, or 2 eductors.

Any opinions?

That's 6 or 8 feet wide? Also what kind of pump/s are we talking about?

I contacted the penductor people a while back to ask the same question about the same pump. If I remember right, the guy said just two penductors can be ran off that pump. I could be wrong.

The 70 won't drive 4 very hard, but 2 should work. The penductors will spread the flow out too much for a long tank.

Two eductors.

I’d also suggest a pair of 6100 Tunze Streams on a multicontroller to give the water a little oscillation. Another option would be a Tunze Wavebox.

A 210 is about the same size as a 180, it’s just taller. A 180 is 6’x2’x2’. A 210 is 30” tall with a 6’ length and a 2’ width.

Oh... ok.

Then two eductors are plenty. Just need to manage the flow properly to keep detritus from settling on the bottom (or at least gather it into easy-to-get-to piles).
