After trying 2 other pumps this one pumps just the right amount of water for my 50 gallon aquarium. Not to hard and not to slow.

Have had 2 now for 6 weeks in my 55g saltwaterwith great results but last night one started rattling like crazy. Took out and had barely anything to clean off it and looked almost brand new. Rattling though I cannot handle so review based on it point lasting longer. Will see how long the 2nd one lasts and give an update.

So this did exactly what we needed it to do and that was move the water as you are cycling a tank but over time it got noisy and all we here was that and not water. But if that doesn’t matter to you than that’s okay product work well.

I have just stepped foot into the world of fish tanks in my early thirties.. Having skipped the role of fish Daddy throughout my formative years, and being barely responsible enough to drink water myself let alone keep a tank of it with living beings inside happy..So my excitement was pretty palpable now that I was adding more mouths to feed into this household. I made a cool little skull filled/fake plant garden and got to buying my African Cichlids. I got some cat fish, and even a pleco.. I went fish crazy I guess.Well, being a newcomer to fishkeeping, I made a couple rookie mistakes. You are never told that overfeeding is a thing with fish. You are never told that if you continue to overfeed, the debris will end up in the substrate and fester there. You are never told that one day, after all this overfeeding, you will wake up to a tank that looks like someone poured a shot glass of milk into. No one tells you this stuff in advance. It’s a right of passage I guess as a fish owner. …fish don’t produce milk as far as I’m aware.Anyways, several google searches, YouTube videos and forums later, you’re told to generate some movement in the water. “How do you do that?” I asked…. “ a wave generator dummy” I was answered. So I bought this guy.I set it up and figured the best route for the water to travel along the skulls, not really sure what to expect. Then I plugged it inRegret flushed over me as my milky water was teeming with bits and pieces of food being kicked up from the substrate. I thought my fish career was over. I noted that the wave generator was silent at this point, my air pump seemed to get louder for some reason but I figured maybe it’s because it’s pushing bubbles through the milk and the food filth so it had to work harder.I closed my eyes and walked away.When I returned, I was ecstatic to see that the water was actually fairly clear. On top of that, my fishes were “playing” in the current. I watched them kind of do this little dance and that’s when I knew I needed a second one.So, in other words, if I bought two of them, surely I am here to tell you it’s worth it to at least buy one. You never know, your fish may dance the night away and your tank will at least be clear as air in the process.

For quite some time these things rattled so bad I was worried for my fish…. I was planning to return them but had to setup an emergency tank and needed some flow more than I was worried about noise…. I took these back out and somehow after a few hours of use they turned whisper quiet

Why didn't I order this sooner? This Wave Maker has completely taken the work out of tank maintenance! I have sand substrate (10 large tanks) and I was vacuuming it to clean the bottom and I was loosing sand in the process. When I added the Wave Maker, and angled it towards the sand, it pushes the debris towards the filter. My sand is ALWAYS in perfectly clean, debris free condition! No more trying to vacuum sand! I have a planted tank, and I also not disturbing my plants!It's quiet and my fish like to play in the wave!Another excellent product from Hygger! They again have wowed me! I am now doing less maintenance and more enjoying! A+++++

So I bought 2 models. The low power and the high power. I have 2 tanks, 150 gallon 61”x24.5” and a 55 gallon 48”12”. Obviously I put them in their perspective aquarium. They’re no ultra powerful but perfect for the tanks to agitate water and move wast to the suction side of the canisters. They worked perfect for me. I didn’t want weak flow but not hurricane force either. These would be perfect for reefs. They also include suction cups and they’re magnetized. I use both but you can removes the suction cups as well. My question would be why would I do that when they’re integrated to be used together. I cannot hear these things. I tried so many others and sent them back because I hate even a hum. These are as quieter than my Fluval FX-4 which is super super quiet. I have some Dojo Loaches and they love to swim against them and do back flips. I wish my other 4 aquariums needed flow so I can get more just to see how great the water effects are in the light with no sound. .Just a note: I bought these to blow over the Fluval thermometers to keep them from giving Low Flow error codes and they work perfect. As I know that Fluval thermometers want them set at 45 degree angles and never vertical to avoid hot spots that can cause them to fail and kill your fish.
