Mp10 vortech

In an aquarium, having the right amount of flow is crucial to the health of the ecosystem. With VorTech QuietDrive choosing the right water circulation equipment has never been easier.

VorTech pumps are designed by aquarists to be the gold standard for providing flow in marine aquariums. When it comes to wide yet smooth flow, the VorTech design is unmatched.

Creates massive water movement.
No harmful “hot spots” for coral
Natural gyre
Flow patterns throughout the tank
Precise control of water movement.

At the heart of the VorTech’s success is its unique, patented, magnetically coupled design.

There are no distractions from the beauty of the tank and its inhabitants.
There are no cables in the aquarium.
No unwanted heat added to the water column
No risk of electrical shock harming people or marine life
No problems installing, relocating or cleaning the

MODES TO PROGRAM YOUR VORTECH

Lagoon Mode:
Lagoon mode simulates a low energy lagoon environment. The speed of the pump is changed slowly to recreate the gentle currents of a lagoon.

Reef Crest Mode:
Reef Crest Random mode simulates a high-energy reef environment. The pump will change speed frequently and drastically to simulate breaking waves and rising tide. This is a SPS coral favorite.

Gyre Mode:
Gyre mode creates a flow pattern consisting of uniform clockwise and counterclockwise flow levels that pulse at a selected interval between two seconds and two hours.

Short Pulse Mode:
Short Pulse mode creates a flow pattern consisting of uniform high and low levels that pulse at a selected interval between 0.2 seconds and 2 seconds.

Rising Tide Mode:
Rising Tide Mode (TSM) creates a harmonious balance reminiscent of the changing flow conditions found in nature. Over the course of several hours, the flow pattern will go from very chaotic to calm, followed by a surge of debris removal at the end of the cycle. The flow direction will change direction in each cycle.

Nutrient transport mode:
Nutrient Transport Mode (NTM) creates circulation in a two-phase program. The first phase uses wave motion to stimulate debris. The second phase continues with an increasing motion to move the debris toward the overflow and out of the aquarium. This mode promotes maximum health, nutrient export, and increased growth for sensitive corals like SPS.

Feed Mode:
With a simple touch of the button, all VorTech wireless enabled pumps will temporarily pause their current, idle mode, allowing food to be added to the tank without having to go through overflow and filtration.

Night Mode:
Pumps can be enabled to run a gentler night program that simulates calmer ocean conditions during nighttime hours.

Wave Auto-Tune:
Create a standing wave in your aquarium and demonstrate the true power of the fully operational VorTech QuietDrive control system.
