And 2 mp40's!!!! Woow. Getting myself a Godiva Excutive in same size I think (how long did yours take from ordering to delivery?). got to get myself an MP40 also with battery back up in case of power cuts (can't afford two though so will supplement with a Koralia 6 magnum). I'm also going down the UV and Ozonizer route (have you got an air dryer as I can't find any for sale). Are the Azoo fans noisey?

Hi m8, think my Godiva only took about 4 weeks, and one mp40 will manage your tank while corals are small, i just got two so i could run both at lower speeds rather than one full pelt, also enables you to use sync/anti sync mode. The batterys are great, seemless changover when power goe's off. Re air driers not looked to be honest, as my ozone is 0-300 I assumed it would be 60% effective so have it set to aprox 40, the fans are no loader than others i've seen, liken it to your pc fans

Yeah I'm prob going overboard. I'll prob just get the mp40 for now with back up battery (will need it, had power cut last week doh!). just wanted good random flow with stength of flow throughout the tank ie both sides. Prob get two at later date for the wave effect. looks awesome.

I'll have to check those fans out in a shop alongside maybe the tunse aquawind ones. Cheers. Prob contect them to an Habitat Cool Control & my heater already has a thermostat already.
