  • Great pump for 10 gallon tank
Works great and very customizable flow. Also, the app is great and have had no issues so far.

  • Works great
Purchased 1 from here & one from LFS. Love the programmability on this from my phone.

  • Love love love
I love these pumps. They’re super strong and work wonderful with the app. Way better than the lights from the same company. I’ve been slowly replacing all of my maxspect gyre pumps with these. All of my coral love the pulse and random flows. I set the pumps to mirror each other at 180 degrees so they work exactly opposite. They’re easy to clean although they can be tough to get apart. I find that a metal nutcracker inserted into the openings allow me to twist it open easy without adding stress to the wire. These are really great pumps! ... show more

  • Works great when it works
Update: The new one only lasted a week before it died. Exact same problem as the first one where it gave me an error saying its jammed. I pulled it apart and cleaned it and there was nothing there for it to be caught up on. I did a soft reset and it didn't work. I did a hard reset and it didn't work. I made sure it had all its firmware updates and still nothing. I was very disappointed in this product. When it was working for the short time, it was a great pump and it looked good in the tank with the low profile. But I can't trust this product any longer. Original: Bought this and installed it in my cichlid tank. Worked great for about 3 weeks and just stopped. I went through all the troubleshooting steps and then noticed a lot of people in the reviews were having the same problem. This is very poor quality control from a company that should know better. Luckily I was still within my exchange window and returned it for another. So far the new one is working great, but I have my doubts on how long it will last. ... show more

  • Oh wow, there's an App for this
Had it for a month, just now learned there's an App for this, lol. I guess I shoulda RTFM.

  • Wish I had just gotten this from the start
To be clear, you are buying an expensive piece of equipment. It’s not value, it’s about whether the features work. And they absolutely do. Configuring it took about 3 seconds. Adjusted it for my tank size and everything. This fan is absolutely perfect. If you can manage the higher price tag, totally worth it. ... show more

  • It’s great!
I upgraded from my fluval wave maker and I didn’t realize what I was missing out on. It has multiple settings at the click of a button. Sleek design keeps a lower profile to the glass which makes it less congested in a nano tank.

  • Wavemaker, Wavemaker… make me a match!
Needed to replace a wave maker and this one was suggested by the gentleman who services my saltwater fish tank. It’s working just fine and my fish 🐠 and coral 🪸 want to “tank” you!
