Hi,

I have a Reef Octo Varios 2 pump which is used as a return pump to a display refugium and a Reef Octo Varios 8 pump as my DT return. Both are connected via 1-10v interface with the Varios 2 pump power controlled via a flow sensor set to 500 l/h (as the flow goes through a UV before the Refugium). The plumbing for the flow sensor provide natural resistance.

I'm looking to tidy up my cabinet by reducing the number of pump controllers so am toying with the idea of a going down the Versia route for my return pumps. The problem I have is the Versia Flow 6 (the smallest of the Versia range) is too powerful for the flow to my Refugium. Sicce provide a 'GHL Ready Cable' for their SDC pumps and I would like to know if their Syncra SDC 3.0 is compatible with the Versia Controller? If not, are GHL planning to add a 'Versia Flow 3' to the range?

I have my SYNCRA SDC plugged directly into my Profilux 4 and it works like a champ.

What kind of plug-in does the Versia Controller have?
This is the controller input:

I use a Syncra SDC 3.0 and it can be controlled using a Hydros controller Via the Sicce cloud.
