It will go for as fast as you want it to run.
duration of 1 will cause it to run at 100ms.
duration of 10 will cause it to run at 1s.

If you are using the DCPump class, here is a list of modes:

Constant
Lagoon
ReefCrest
ShortPulse
LongPulse
NutrientTransport
TidalSwell
Night
Storm
Custom
Gyre
Sine
Else
How long does it take to run through the modes? Assuming there is a start and end to the pattern before it starts over?

I've not really thought about it much but I started to think about this has I have two RW8's in my 40 breeder on opposite sides. What would happen if I had them alternate on/off with each pattern how that would look or even be beneficial...

Cus the storm code i belive at nightly reset or whatever u want to call it when it starts a new day i believe the code predeturms cloud and lighting for the day cus it gives i variable for portal of when next cloud is and how long so should beable to write code to take that variable and start a pwm ramp up befor it starts and or ramp down maybe for dayd with no lightning and just cloud maybe that would make it a cloudy calm day with less flow or something. I'm still new to code so not sure if i know what ill be doing but i always have a code back up so if i mess it up then i cam start over
