Yeah, I decided to try it after I posted. I have never gotten this far into the mod, and know very little about sparks, etc. I didn't know if I need to add anything to the sparks.

It's been a few months during a previous playthrough since I tried using the mariculture generator/turbine/pressurized water system, but I had to use a pump to pick up the pressurized water. I couldn't get it directly out of a sluice. In any case, while I don't remember the exact power output, I just remember the mariculture generator being very low for power output when I had 8 turbines with pressurized water. I'm liking the mana fluxfield way way more.
Just an FYI, sparks have a 12 block range and can move mana faster than any of the spreaders. But you will need to have progressed into upgrading your lexicon with the alfheim portal before you can make the spark augments.
Top tip the more pools you have hooked up the faster is will go.
Plus it takes half a pool to make one ingot!Yeah, I had a turbine working and didn't like it much. I figured I could pump the water with a BC pump, but that was getting pretty kludgy. It really should autoeject from the sluice into a pipe, I mean it's "pressurized!"
I might try a Mekanism pipe later. If those work a bank of water towers and sluices might be worth using.
Still working on this mana-power scheme. I can charge the cells, no problem, just not sure I can get the power into BC pipes so far. May need Mekaism for that too.
I played with BC pipes for years. All this is bringing back nightmares. I don't mind needing gates and filters for some functions, but not crazy about how hard they are to get to work. I don't know if it's because other mod power systems don't try to support them, or if they've just failed to keep up with more recent APIs, but they are aggravating. A wooden fluid pipe on a sluice powered by a wooden engine SHOULD work per BC logic.
Okay, ocean base has power finally. Flower power. Two 20 hydroangea stacks, elven mana spreader each aimed at a single fluxfield sitting next to a Mekanism energy cube, then an emerald kinesis pipe pulling from the cube into my power grid (diamond and gold kinesis piping.) The pipes are overkill now, but resources are not a limit so I figured I'd leave room to grow.
Two spreaders to a single fluxfield appears to work fine. I can see energy bumps following the mana pulse from each.
Not sure how much power this puts out yet. It was faster than my single combustion engine temporary setup (burning fuel) when it had only 12 hydros in early tests in powering the three lasers in the screenie. I'm guessing it's equal to four fuel-burning combustions. Nice part is it's hands off now. No fuel worries, cooling worries or fumes, just allergy issues.
My ocean base is nearly framed. Have a wet room three levels down with a bubble entrance from the deeps. Putting my oyster farm down there, and a couple fish farms too. The fishfarming area will be on the bottom level just above that. Now that I have power I can get a nursery going and start farming something other than stingrays.
Oh, the current incarnation of the fishing net catches more than just cod, but mostly does catch and release. If you set up some nets, put a hopperhock on the bottom to collect the live fish it drops )or dive down and check occasionally.) The ones on top of the nets will quickly die, but, cod aside, most of them seem to end up on the bottom and alive. Living nightfish, minnows, tetras, damsels, stingrays and cod were turning up in my pack when I was looking for construction drops down in the coral. I was using nets as temporary walkways.
Screenies for those who like to see (as I do!)

Bug Report
While playing in a LAN game, both the host and the remote player are getting this error:
http://pastebin.com/Y66aTMT1
The error only occurs when looking up recipes. Tested with version 0.7.2 of the pack. (I also tried updating Applied Energistics to the latest beta, but that doesn't seem to solve the problem.)

As per the FAQ on the first page, this error is because Applied Energistics caches the inscriber recipes, and it doesn't like when they're messed with. As of now, there are two possible fixes. 1) When leaving a world, completely exit the client before relaunching and entering any world. 2) Comment out or delete the inscriber recipes in the MineTweaker scripts.
It depends on what you want to do with it, but you can't really go wrong with a potency/velocity combo.
Thank you. That's basicly what I was looking for. Just in terms of efficiency.
Thanks pointing that out (missed it somehow)! For anyone else who has this problem: Doing a clean world load doesn't work with LAN games, so you'll have to modify the MineTweaker scripts.
I have this weird problem were hqm quests " Earthly Possessions" and " Let's Try Punching Things" doesn't say incomplete or complete even though when I click on them it says I have already turned in all required items. This happened after I updated to 0.7.1 and I'm in 0.7.2 now. HELP!
I have already tried to reset using the OP edition hqm book.

have you tried going up the quest chain? ie completing the tools quest that comes before it first and then trying to reset it?
Well to unlock that one I have to complete " Let's Try Punching Things" which is the first quest.
