There are a lot of people complaining about this I see on forums. All I can say is that the impeller shaft is exposed. It only takes one grain of sand in this to cause it to fail to spin. Keep it someplace where the sand does not get to it. I first tried to use it on a new tank, but the sand was still loose and got to it. Errors!! Once the tank established the sandbed I put it back in. And all is well now. The controller is not exactly user friendly, but once you get the hand of it you will be fine. Most importantly, keep it clear of sand, macro algae, and use the sponge cover that it came with to keep any debris out of it. Like I mentioned, one single sand grain is all it takes to cause this thing to error. If you place it in a good spot, use the filter sponge circle cover, and clean it when doing water changes it works perfectly. It is NOT a drop in and forget it device like a power-head.

I bought this to use in my freshwater planted tank. I'm running a 17 gallon ADA 60P tank with a Fluval 307 canister filter, along with CO2 injection. Because I'm using lily pipes, the pressure of the flow in the tank was creating some dead spots in the circulation between the rocks. I intended to use this to add more circulation in the tank, and because it was small and magnetic, I could position it wherever I needed. It arrived packaged very well, and was easy to setup. The instructions are pretty straightforward, and I had it set up in a few minutes. This tiny little thing is strong, at the minimum 40% power it was still pushing water around, I imagine it would be perfect for a nano reef tank, or for some additional flow in a larger tank. It has several modes, one of the most convenient being feeding mode where it stops the pump for 10 minutes. I stopped using it because I added some neocaridina shrimp to my tank and I'm worried the pump will suck them up and spit them out in pieces. I suppose you could just cover it in mesh netting or panty hose, but after moving the pipes of my filter to different locations I managed to find a spot that circulated the water where I needed it to. One thing I wish was programmed in was while using feeding mode, if it was not just a 10 minute timespan. When cleaning the tank, doing water changes, and trimming down the plants, it would be nice to have a manual start/stop function without unplugging it.

I cant understand for the life of me how this has good reviews! Its sucks! I have attempted several time to program and just gave up! Its on default mode and judging by the diagram listed on here its not working right. Its 12:47pm and the first number says 0! I dont see how that can be. That number is not listed as an option. It must be malfunctioning! Its now reading 0801and its barely doing anything. I shuts on and off putting out very short little bursts! I wish I would have returned it a long time ago! I will stick with Jebao from here on out! Supposedly its on default so the numbers and flow should change throughout the day. The numbers change but flow dosnt! It just does the same thing all day short tiny bursts! ! Beside that It has these 4 rubber prongs that attach it to the magnet and one of the rubber prongs broke right away so I only have 3 and its constantly needing to be put back in the holes! I hate this wavemaker! The worst I have ever bought and it isnt cheap! I am about ready to trash it and buy a jebao! Then use this for down bottom and add a tiny bit of flow because thats all I can get from it!

I really like this wave maker for the price. It is essentially silent thanks to the rubber feet that attach it to the magnetic base. The double magnet mounting system and low profile make it easy to move this pump around the tank as needed. The programming method is a little confusing at first, but there are videos on YouTube that easily explain it and the manual, which can be downloaded from the website explains things well. Mine did not come with the manual and was clearly used, having bits of plant matter around the blades. (I bought it as a new item. I had to disassemble the wave maker, which is easy and clean it before using to make sure that I didn’t introduce and pathogens into my tank. (Probably paranoia on my part, but I’d rather be safe than sorry.) Programming is semi-customizable. You set the wave style, strength(5 settings), and frequency (8 settings) for each of 5 preset time periods. You cannot schedule the pump to be off, though you can manually pause the pump by activating “feeding mode.” I was hoping to have some more quiet periods and to be able to schedule the pump to turn off during scheduled automatic feeding while I was away, but this is not possible. You are also stuck with the time breakdown they set and cannot vary any pump settings within a given time period. Though programming is a little awkward, it is easy once you figure it out, and I do not really see myself constantly fiddling with the flow after initial setup, so it’s only a one time hassle. As a result, the convenience of Bluetooth or WiFi control doesn’t really seem worth the price difference to me and I am happy with this unit as it is. Despite these drawbacks and issues, this little wave maker works beautifully in my 15gal setup and I would happily buy it again given the price and functionality.

This little Hygger wave pump is a very good value. Don't let anybody tell you that it takes $300 to build a good wave pump. The Hygger pump is low on features. As you would expect at this price. But a wave pump is a wave pump. They are propellers used to move the water inside a fish tank. The level of quality and features differ greatly among the price points. But they all function the same way. This Hygger device will move water as well as any pump of the same size. What you get in the more expensive device is a better build quality and more features. This one does not have WiFi. It has no App control. All of the control are on the included console. I use this pump to add movement to a 20-gallon long. I have it on the lowest setting. This tank has three filter-feeding shrimp. They grab moving particles from the water and eat it. The particles have to be tiny. Flakes and crushed flakes are too big. I needed enough water movement to keep the food powder in circulation. This Hygger pump does just that at its lowest setting. Too bad Hygger does not make a smaller pump. Setting the power levels, wave modes, and frequencies will take a little getting used to. There are four digits on the display panel. The first digit is the code for the time of day. A day is broken into intervals. You cannot change the intervals. You can program the power level for each time interval. Level 1 has a maximum power output of 40%. In my opinion, it should be 20% to accommodate smaller tanks. It goes up to 100% as you increase the number. The third is the wave mode. The last digit is the frequency of the waves. The lower that number, the more quicker the wave pulses. A higher number will give a gentler water movement. You may need some kind of a screen if you have smaller fish in the tank. The pump is powerful and could draw in small fish. The easiest way is to use those garlic nets. Go to the produce section of your grocery store and look for the garlic. They come in a sock-like net tubing. Wash the tubing and soak it in water. You want to remove any traces of garlic. Then cut a 2" piece and slip it over the pump head. And there you have an excellent net to prevent smaller fish from getting drawn into the pump. This is an excellent wave pump. It is nowhere near the quality, power, and features as a Vortech MP10, but then again, it's not $300. Save the Vortechs and the Maxspect Gyres for your reef tank. Those high dollar pumps are not needed in a freshwater tank. Highly recommended for the smaller fish-only tank or invertebrate tank. Spend more money for reef tank use.

Worked for about 2 minutes powerfully and incredible! And then the death error showed up “error 7”, and it just stopped working. They are sending me a replacement and I’ll update my review if it works. ***UPDATE: This one has been a beast! It's so powerful, and if you have a tank under 6 gallons you will need to run it at its lowest frequency w/ rock or something to stop the turbulence. It's eliminated my dead spots, and has increased my flow exponentially.

8/9 Update: Unfortunately, the replacement they sent me still gets Error7, not every week but every month or so. I stuck the old one in my freshwater and there have been no problems since. With that said, I don't recommend this powerhead for a saltwater, freshwater is probably fine. Update: They reached out to me and sent me a replacement to see if it was defective. I still have to test it out for a couple of months before I leave a review for the replacement. But I will bump their review because of their outstanding customer support. I really want to like this powerhead. It is the smallest powerhead I could find with such power and functionality. Unfortunately, the pump stops working almost every week and the controller shows an Error7. I have to remove the pump and take everything apart and put it back in in order to get it running again. I know I need to clean the powerhead sometimes but once a week is impractical and a huge chore. I dose kalkwasser and 2-part so that may contribute but I'm sure most people dose some form of calcium and alk so if this is the reason for the failure then that is a design flaw. Because of this, I would not recommend this powerhead.

The Hygger Mini Wave Maker powerhead is the perfect size for nano tanks where space is extremely limited. Most of the offerings available are more than twice the size of this one, as well as 2-4 times the cost. It is a surprisingly powerful little pump for its size and able to move a fairly large volume of water and you can see this across a 2 ft. tank. The output flow pattern is very broad so it won't necessarily blast water directly at corals near it but will create good turbulent flow patterns to break up the linear flow present in most nano tanks. The mounting setup allow for this pump to be absolutely silent. Both magnets have a silicone/rubber wrap on them and the pump uses four flexible silicone rubber mounting arms to secure the pump head to the magnet mount. The impeller cage is made that it should offer some level of protection against smaller fish or wandering nems should they get too close, but like with any powerhead there's always that chance of injury to them so always want top keep an eye if they wander too close. The controller takes a little bit to get the hang of with how the flow type, power, and cycle speed are separated out. You also have the option of setting up to 5 different flow patterns based on hard set blocks over a 24 hour period. This allows you to have a period of gentler wave flow at dawn for example, but then stronger or faster oscillation later on, then follow it up with constant or random flow later on. You can also set all 5 time blocks to the same setting if you like. So far the only complaints are that the pump mounting tabs are made from rubber so while they isolate noise and vibration very well, they pop out of the magnet fairly easily. Reinserting them isn't a big deal as they pop right back in, but they are almost but not quite evenly spaced, so getting them all to line up takes a couple of attempts. The other downer is these are stand-alone units and cannot link two or more together like other wavemakers can. I would love the ability to wirelessly link two of these together to work in tandem so you can place them on opposite sides of the tank. Bottom line, for the price this is a very inexpensive, feature rich, and powerful little pump and perfect for a nano tank where real estate for equipment is at a premium.
