Ah, you mean DMP-30. So on 3/4” glass, a DMP-30 does not hold via magnetism alone? Got it. Did the suction cups not help? My DMP-10 doesn’t have the magnetism to go through my nano tank’s glass, which is thick glass for a nano. However, the suction cups render the magnetism void. After I used the zip-tie bracket on the cord, the suction cups + magnets were plenty strong to keep those wavemakers in place.

@ I didn’t use the zip ties, I’ll try that. The wet side seems to hold with the suction cup assistance but when I got home the dry side was on the floor

@ Yeah, I’d use the little plastic bracket and zip ties in the box. Attach them to the cord and hang the cord above the dryside. It keeps it flush to the glass for me.

LOL can you tell I’m a seasoned expert when it comes to vehicles? 🤣

@@RobBzReef Thank you, sir!

@@Malick_ibn_dinar Very cool. The 3D community always blows my mind. These dudes are wizards!

Really love the light. It’s been excellent. Just got some fresh corals for that tank and they’re thriving.

@@kalamazoo_reefer nice👍

@@HairyReefFrog likely not, because the VorTech and DMP cages actually twist off in different directions.

@@davidhahn79 I’ve tried them all. I own all 4 iterations now. Haha! In my opinion, you’d be best rolling with 3-4 DMP-30s. I think the 30 is the strongest entry in this lineup. I run two 30s on one end of my 80 gallon, and a -40 on the other end. If I could do it again, I’d go with four 30s. Two on each end. The 30 just feels ridiculously solid in all aspects to me. The 40 is fine. I just have a preference for the 30 because it feels so dang solid all around.

@@kalamazoo_reefer Thanks. I ordered a 30. I want to try it out. I'm thinking of two on the side close to the wall, and either an eow or crossflow vertically on the backwall of the other side so I can keep that side view clear.

@@Moreysreef Totally depends on what you’re looking to do. What kind of coral will you be growing, and how big is the tank?

Maybe. If I clipped it, it wouldn’t be a clean clip (I’ve just got bone cutters), so I’d leave more exposed coral in the process. I’m letting it ride for the moment. If it grows algae on it, I’ll clip it as best I can. No plans for a bigger tank yet, but in the distant future, I’m sure I’ll upgrade to a 6-7 footer. Gotta let my kid grow up some first, though. It’ll take more time to maintenance a beast like that!

The names are so wild lol I can’t keep track. My brain just rejects the chaos.

Welcome, friend! Thanks for hopping on board! I won’t promise the most top quality video content on the internet, but I absolutely try to be honest and get videos out regularly. 😂

I’m super happy with it man. It’s cruising along!

I prefer a much more “daylight spectrum” aquarium. I run ReeFi Uno 2.0 Pros and Quanta Pro bars. The ReeFi lights are quite deep-hued, but I chose the “Tropic Sun” variety of the Quanta Pro bars, and those have a super bright daylight spectrum. I really enjoy the combination of the two lights.

@@kalamazoo_reefer thanks I’ll look into those lights

Hahahaha get outta here! I’m such a gearhead. I barely know the names of my own coral.

😂😂😂😂 He is the Jecod DMP RUclips’s ambassador

@ Lol I’m all over it!

Hey just an fyi...Reefbuilders just pulled the DMP pump review down due to "legal review"

@ lol this DMP is making a lot of noise 😂

All is well! You hanging in there?

@@kalamazoo_reefer Just chugging along as always. Slowly fixing issue after issue with my tank until one day, it will be dialed in. One day.. sigh

It is altogether too much for me to keep track of. I have enough of my brain taken up by all the names of reefing gear and lines. I just want pretty corals that I can grow. Lol.

@@macy17250 Yep. Check pinned comment!

Interesting, but not something I’d personally go for, as this performance is excellent for me, and I like to keep things as direct and simple as I can with backup.

What wattage would this return pump be running at, do you think?

@@kalamazoo_reeferNot sure exactly… depends on the pump you’ve got, but if you’re running pump just enough to keep chemistry stable temporarily power usage may not be that much🤔. Telegram probably already tried this just for kicks!

@ I’ve tried it myself. That’s why I wondered if you had a max draw wattage in mind hahah.

24V.

@ thanks 🙏

Sure does.

Throw me some more detail.

@@brockkirschenmann9711 Planning to get into that soon. It’ll probably come near the end of the series, when I rotate all these wavemakers fully onto my tank for good. Right now, doing a lot of comparative testing and accessory testing. So so much to get through. It’s a mountain. Sorry for the delay on that.

I always size up and run lower speeds. Less wear on the wavemaker. But the -20, -30, and -40 haven’t exhibited this sound challenge for me, even at higher speed settings. Hope yours quiets down with time.

Someday, I’ll do a video on all my battery backups for each tank. Those units are the small ones. Lmao.

@@tmontana6715 IM25 lagoon!

Boom! I love it! This is exactly what I found, as well. I was hoping someone else had the same experience to share. Thank you for sharing! And yes, I need to crank out another podcast episode. It’s been a crazy semester for me. I’ll get to it! Just spread thin at the moment 😂

@@GwonkReefkeeping There is a function for it in the app, but I need to test it out. I’ll get there. Doing my best, friend!

@kalamazoo_reefer Thanks 👍🏾

If I had to guess, I’d say 1/4” glass is the sweet spot. I misspoke in the video. My glass is 3/8” thick, and the magnet is a little weak for that, but it still holds fine.

@kalamazoo_reefer Very valuable information ! Thank you. 😀

Have 2 ecotech mp10’s on 1/2 inch waterbox glass and they’re just enough to hold on, but definitely had to fine tune position of wet side to keep both sides synced properly. Otherwise they would flutter or even completely separate when I turned up the rpm’s… reaching the limits of the magnets is not fun.

@ Yeah, 10’s on half inch being a struggle makes sense. Heck, VorTech MP10’s can’t hold on at 1/2”. They fell off for me, back when I ran them. Had to rig them up to not fall off.

So I have 6mm glass roughly 1/4 inch . I actually think the glass is too thin I increased the spacing on the wet side so it's further away from the glass and it's almost dead silent. It is basically sitting on top of the rubber suction cup holder

I’ll believe that when I see it, frankly. Not doubting you. Doubting that specific seller.

Thank you for doing such thorough investigations on these wavemakers!

@@barelyreefer I have way more to come. When I am through, it will be a ridiculously comprehensive series.

@kalamazoo_reefer Sweet. Looking forward to watching them

I was having that noise issue and have started trying to fix it. Just made it unbearably worse. The noise is from the dry side. I can hear it anywhere in the room at the lowest setting. I will keep trying but I’m nervous this one may be unusable. I have a DMP 20 on the way because I thought it may be quiet to run a larger one at a lower setting.

I can do so quite easily!

@ I’m asking because I’ve a cheap battery backup that reefdork suggested and it can deliver power for my mp10 for over 24 hours

I have the Quanta Pro, are you talking about the very first gen, prior to the pro version?

@ yes, not the helix version or dimmable.
