  • Quality pump! Good for small tanks.
Size: 1600 gph
So far so good! I had to pull up some YouTube videos to wrap my brain around the programing instructions, but once I got the logic of it, it was super easy. The wave pattern, strength and frequency are all customizable by time of day which is pretty dang cool. I have a little tiny 14gal nano cube, so the low profile is amazing but this powerhead is honestly a little strong for my tank even on the lowest setting. Fortunately, the plastic anemone guard available from another seller fit perfectly and that limited/diffused the flow just enough to where it's perfect now. Highly recommend! ... show more

  • Great intro wave maker for 10+ gallons reef tank
Size: 1600 gph
Great little wave maker for the price. Settings are a bit different so go through directions for details. A bit too strong for a nano tank of 5 gallons but would be great for 15 or 20 gallons.

  • You're potentially exchanging for quite a few of these until you get one that works
Size: 1600 gph
I wouldn't take the risk to purchase this item. While Hygger has a larger name in the hobby, the craftmanship is still reflective of a cheaply made product. There is a clear lack of quality control. I ordered this item, followed the poorly written instructions, set up in the tank, and immediately received error code 7. I checked the impeller area for debris (how could there be any, it's a new item) and found none. What I did find though, is that the tolerance for the plastic that makes up the impeller clearly has some kind of hang up against the blade housing when you spin the impeller blades by hand. What I think was occurring was the controller was reading this inconsistency in blade spin as being caught up. Props for the controller's sensitivity, but it is useless to pair that kind of detail with a mistake in workmanship. I exchanged for a new item the next day, set up the flow rates and times as desired, put it in my tank. Error code 7 again. I'm not doing this a third time. Change your manufacturing standards. I get that this is a smaller hobby, but have some integrity. ... show more

  • Functionality & Surprising Power with a Small Footprint
Size: 1600 gph
The media could not be loaded. With some programmable wave makers costing hundreds of dollars, I had reservations about this one. However, since this was more of an aesthetic addition, there wasn't much risk. I'm happy to say I was pleasantly surprised by how well this wave maker performed. At the time of writing the wave maker has been running continuously for two weeks. The video shows max power/continuous. My tank is a standard 20 gal long (30" x 13" x 13"). The wave maker is offset towards the back and can produce current along the back of the tank. On its lower setting, the wave maker is strong enough to induce a gentle current and fully circulate around the hardscape back to the head unit. The build quality is good. All of the power cables appeared to be well-secured and insulated, with good flexibility (wires don't feel cheap). The head unit's power cable has a threaded three-pin connector, which secures it from water and accidental disconnects around wet areas. The control is basic and kind of large, but the fit and finish are good. The power supply separates from the controller, so in the event the power supply goes out, it can be easily replaced without replacing the controller unit. The power head itself sits on replaceable rubber stabilizers mounted to the metal disk, which is held by a strong magnet. Both the disk and magnet have a rubber cover, which I'm assuming will allow for some easy cleaning. The cage can be easily removed for cleaning, as well as the propeller. The propeller has a ceramic shaft that could be easily broken if mishandled. If you get the dreaded Error 7, unplug the head unit, pop the cage, and rotate the propeller until it turns smoothly. I had to do this several times during setup because I was kicking sand up. I suggest using the filter media bands that are included if you have fine substrate, plants for nano fish. The installation was straightforward. The ability to free the head unit from the controller and the magnetic attachment makes it fast and easy to test out locations before committing. You also get some zip ties and adhesive tie-downs for cable management. Programming is way more confusing than it should be, and the manual's writing compounds the problem. In short (TLDR), the wave maker has a schedule of 5 time periods; you cannot change these time periods, only the wave pattern it runs during them. Once you set your local time, you should create a program for each of the 5 time periods by changing the first digit, which indicates the time period, and then entering the wave program. You can program completely different wave programs for each or identical ones so that they never change. For my setup, I've chosen to do constant at full power. My programming is 1438, 2438, 3438, 4438, 5438 The output pattern of the head unit is standard, not too focused, and not too wide. it has a pretty decent throw. However, if my tank were any longer, I would want to step up to a higher power head for what I'm going for. Otherwise, a second head opposite would give good circulation on a lower power setting. ... show more
