i want to make a exstra pump but should i make another channel or have the 2 pump go over the same channel
tesseract 2 pumps same channel?

one more thing, i have 20 magmatic engines going through an energy tesseract but somehow when i use the liquid transposer and magma cruicble the me system cant hold up. *i have only one cable from the tessetact going to all my machines*
Well, what kind of cable is it? The lower tier Thermal Expansion cables (Leadstone Energy Conduit, Hardened Energy Conduit) have rather limited throughput (80 and 400 RF/t, IIRC) while the magma crucible is rather power hungry (it uses either 400 or 800 RF/t I think).
im actually playing tekkit lite, in which case im using red energy conduits
but i heard that if you surround the tesseract you get more power out of it? is that real or fake? No, that's true, because the power flow is connection-based; so for every connection that the cable has on the tesseract (each side that you put a cable on), the cable can transfer an additional 10000 RF/T.im actually playing tekkit lite, in which case im using red energy conduits
And yeah, apparently ME systems are a tad more power-hungry these days.
As for your original question, just make sure that you're not trying to send two different fluids across the same channel, and that your extraction speed for the fluid is eual to or higher than the pumps' speed or else you will have issues.
one more question, i have theese geothermals here *might be a little overkill x)* but here you see http://i.imgur.com/LDKL4VK.png i have 4 tesseracts *2 on each side* and 2 pumps but somehow its still not enought to get lava to all of them :/ *the pumps are on the same channel*No, that's true, because the power flow is connection-based; so for every connection that the cable has on the tesseract (each side that you put a cable on), the cable can transfer an additional 10000 RF/T.

so if i surround the tesseract with liquiduct there will come more lava out ? or does it only do that with energy ?
I can't tell where the tesseracts are in that pic... and why do you need 2 on each side?
But, um, yes, it might help to have the same thing with the fluiducts. However, there is a maximum amount that the fluiducts can transfer at once, unlike redstone energy conduits, so it will work, but up to a point.
Also, if these are IC2-exp geothermals, they may be a bit weird about their lava usage. If you think you've got enough lava going through to them, try wrenching them all and placing them back one by one; that "might" help
How is your pumps set up? Can we get a screenshot?
Which kind of pumps is it? How are they powered?
I can tell you that I used to have 26 Geothermals fed with Lava by a single Liquiduct connection back in FTB Unleashed(connected to a Ender-Tank, but that shouldent matter). What you are doing sounds way way overkill. Sounds a lot like its the pump that is the problem.

Pretty sure Fluidducts/Liquiducts are and have always been connection based as well. For steam for example you can run almost endless amounts through a single length of duct, as long as you have enough connections on each end.
Yeah the Connection based rate is dependant on the fluid. So water, lava and steam all have different transfer rates.
Found this old wiki on Liquiduct explaining it:
http://feed-the-beast.wikia.com/wiki/Liquiduct
also another problem x) i have thoose geothermals right xd they output 800per tick, and somehow my induction and rotarty ect exploded x) is it becuz they output too much ? and should i give them a lv transformer or a mv transformer
1. Tesseracts have NO thoughtput limit. A single Tesseract is only limited by the amount of connections and speed of those connections. Certain connections do not have limitations, like putting a tesseract directly against a tank or a Pump directly against a tesseract.
2. No do not use golden pipes. Their throughput is much lower than Liquiducts and they will do this annoying splashing which will leave some Geothermals empty and others full. Liquiducts fill all connected inventories evenly.
3. Please show us your pump setup.
Ehm you have IC2 normal right? Not IC2 Experimental?
None the less you should feed the power from the Geothermals into a storage device like a MFE/MFSU and from there distribute it to the machines. But make sure to step down the voltage using transformers first!
If you have IC2 normal: Nothing could happen if you have a million Geothermals connected to any machine. Geothermals packet size "voltage" is only 20, and the machines with the smallest maximum packet size is 32 Eu/p.
But that MV solar can blow up machines with 32EU/p as it outputs 64EU/p. This is why you always should feed power into storage devices and transform it from there.
But this is for IC2, not IC2E!
