PowerHeads on ports 5 & 6

Post by rossbryant1956 »

Is this a requirement or just a strongly recommended best practice?

I am following the code design being done by moduluk and wondering how I might re-swizzle all my ports to take advantage of his design. It would seem best to move pumps and heat to outlet box one, and lights, skimmer, dosers, etc., to other boxes because those wouldn't be plugged into a UPS.

Since I have multiple tanks running on my RA, I have more than one set of powerheads and wondered. Thx in advance.

Those ports have dampening or some other feature that make them right for turning off/on pumps alot..
