Cant advice much as not into this. However, Bro Hammy used 7095, 6100 and 6055 for his 2 ft(slightly smaller cube). He dont have much LS but he is also keeping SPS, ric, zoo and some other coral. The sps are nice. Vortex wireless is impressive and definitely save space and reduce heat. Anyone can comment on their performance and durability and also any shortcoming.....on surface.....vortex seems to have more plus pts...hope to learn more.....

Considering the amount of R&D put into vortech, its worth a try.

Tunze. Controllable with 7095 multicontroller 
Ask around more about Vortech, you will hear bad news from users in the longer term....

I think the one in Iwarna was the big version, MP40 comes with wireless controller. I did some consideration for vortech for RSM but after fiddling around and testing the the power it may overkill for my small tank. So at the end settle with 6055 with light sensor and 7091 controller. I am only running one wavemaker for my tank.

ya..I'm worry that overkill 2. I like the design so I think MP20
maybe more suitable for RSM.
