Can anyone help specify exactly what components are needed to hook up a Tunze 6105 powerhead to the Neptune Apex.
A Tunze was included with my used 210Gallon tank when I purchased it-no Tunze 7090 controller or interface.
However, I sat the tank up with Apex Fusion and therefore installed two WAVs. They get the job done but I'd like to attempt to utilize this Tunze that is just laying around for added flow dynamics in the tank. The Tunze is literally just the powerhead and its coupled cord - nothing else, nothing to power it.
What do I need to get it running on the Apex Fusion. I looked on BRS and cannot definitively see if I will need the Tunze Wavecontroller , $55 +/-
Or there is just a few cords off BRS I can purchase to make the connection for power and communication.
Thank You
 
Looks like you'll need this cable:

It requires an outlet on the Apex system to plug into - either an Apex controller built with the variable capability or a VDM Module. The cable will handle two controllable Tunze Stream pumps.
It seems from you said the tunze stream 6105 can plug directly into the Apex controller. So the cable that you shared a link from BRS seems both to have male connectors, how will the male connector on the Tunze make this transition? It seems like to use the BRS cable it would be male to male ends that need connected.
