Description

Total Flow Rate: 480GPH (1850L/H) Recommend aquarium size Range: 60-75gal fish tank Dimension: 2.75 x 2 x 2 inches (L x W x H) Length of power cord: 6ft Voltage: 110V-120V / 60Hz 1.Why does the wave pump not work right after being purchased? (1)Ensure the power of pump is stable and safe; Otherwise, it may cause the wave maker to burn out (2) The impeller shaft is installed too tight, you can remove the impeller shaft and reinstall it, then it will run. 2.Why does the wave pump stop working after a period of time and what should be done? The impeller of the wavemaker should be cleaned every months, in this case, you can remove the impeller and clean it, reinstall the impeller and it will run normally. 3.How to check the wave pump? (1) Open the wavemaker and check for debirs between the impeller and shaft, clean thoroughly to eliminate blockages (2) Inspect the shaft to check for rubber caps at both ends,(Note:Some caps may already be seated in the pump and front cover grooves) (3) Reinstall the impeller and shaft assembly with rubber caps secured in their designated grooves.And then it will resume normal operation Notes:Please not direct the wave pump at the aquatic plants or sand, as it may cause the pump to clog. (The frequency of cleaning the wave pump should be determined based on the actual conditions of the fish tank.) First release the black latch before use Second press the suction cup to squeeze the air out At last pull the latch down to lock the sucker 360° rotation flow directions make it easy to stir up debris towards the filter keeping them from settling at the bottom The locking suction cup attached to the wave maker will be more sturdy than the general suction cup

  • Strong, quiet circulation pump that improves tank water flow
Size: 480 GPH
This aquarium circulation pump delivers impressive water movement for its compact size. The 480 GPH flow helps eliminate dead spots and keeps water well-oxygenated, which is great for maintaining a healthy fish tank environment. It runs quietly and the suction cup mount holds securely in place, making positioning simple. Installation is quick and the pump feels durable for everyday use. Overall, a reliable and effective wave maker that’s a solid choice for improving tank circulation. ... show more

  • Perfect addition to my turtle pond
Size: 480 GPH
Ordered one of these for my turtle pond which is a 5' round kiddie pool and it works great. Just the right amount of power to provide the level of current without being too much. My female turtle really loves it and it works well to keep the entire pool temp regulated so there isn't cold spots. The only problem I ran into was that the suction cup not staying in place, so I've ordered some 1" replacement suction cups that should hopefully work better. Highly recommended! ... show more

  • Good deal
Size: 480 GPH
For starters, the price is good. It’s effective and works well. Not the greatest quality but that should be a given. I would not buy this model for anything besides small turtles or baby cichlids or nano salt water tanks. It’s not that strong. I bought it for my 6in aggressive flowerhorn and he attacked it. He’s in a 45 gallon and it’s not strong enough, there are still dead spots. :| now that’s not the company’s fault that he attacked it but it did come off right after. And maybe I didn’t put it on hard enough but he hasn’t taken it down again yet. But definitely worth the money. ... show more

  • Great Little Wave Maker for Small Tanks
Size: 480 GPH
The AQUANEAT Circulation Pump is a compact and efficient solution for adding water movement to smaller aquariums. Its 480 GPH flow rate is powerful enough to keep the tank clean and simulate natural currents without disturbing fish or plants. The suction cup mount holds the pump firmly in place, even after weeks of use. It runs quietly, which is a big plus if your tank is in a bedroom or quiet space. The swivel head makes it easy to direct the flow where it’s needed most. Setup was straightforward, and it started working right out of the box with no issues. For the price and performance, this pump is a solid addition to any small to mid-size tank. ... show more

  • So good! Aquaneat ftw!
Size: 480 GPH
Handy little recirc! Just be careful when you're taking them apart for cleaning and maintenance because there's a couple of really teeny tiny little parts!

  • Good for a Short Time
Size: 480 GPH
Works fine initially, but only lasts a few months and then it either completely stops, or has very reduced flow. The propeller seems to disconnect from the shaft.

  • Tusami maker!
Size: 480 GPH
I bought this thinking it would help circulate the debris on the bottom of my planted 20 gallon sand tank. When I turned it on it immediately started sucking in my floating plants, blowing over and ripping up my plants! I was terrified it was going to suck up my fish! I couldn't shut it off fast enough! There is no adjustment level, nor any screens to prevent anything from getting sucked into the propellers! What the heck?? The video is nothing like what happened in my tank! The fish, (and ME!) were terrified. Noise level? I was too busy trying to save things to notice any noise, except my swearing and screaming! It certainly moves the water though! ... show more

  • Well made continue running without loosing any strength and never turned off!!!
Size: 480 GPH
The suction power of this 480gph is real good I have this for 2 and a half month now and only one time during this 2 month I have noticed that the suction cup was not holding to the glass tank but I think it was my mistake caused I placed it wrong for the first time. The value for the money was excellent, and is made of a strong plastic, very tough, well made. The power of the motor is incredible good, I had never tuned it off this wave maker scince I bought it and is continue running without loosing any strength. Is moving the water in a semi circular movement, in that way is moving constantly all the waste thru the filter pipe!!! I don’t have any dislikes at the moment of this review!!! And my aquarium is a 37 gallons tropical planted tank!!! For the cheap priced I had nothing to loose!!! I’m very happy with this purshased!!! ... show more
