    California Powerheads Neptune WAV pumps

    I have 2 Neptune Systems wav pumps. Used for less than 2 years. Still work well but I went with a gyre. Not pictured are the magnet mounts, but they're included and have both rings. Can take photos of them if requested. Let me know if there are any questions. Thanks! $140/each shipped...

    Better a smaller pump run at 40% - or a larger pump run at 20%?

    I have a tank similar to a 2ft cube. I wanna buy a couple of Maxspect gyres. Either the 330s or 350s. At first glance, the 350 gyres would seem the more attractive option: The 350s are longer than the 330s - which means the flow is distributed over a wider area. The 350s offer the same flow...

    Wave Maker is dirty / Something Growing on it

    Hey guys, Ive started to notice these last few days some stuff on my wave maker only at the bottom and the front of it. I guess it looks likes hair or a spiders web, but I can only see it on the wave maker. Any ideas what it is or if I should be worried?

    Neptune WAV running in reverse - No idea why

    It does not happen all of the time, but every once in a while my WAV runs in reverse. It makes a buzzing sound when it does so. Here is a video and a screenshot of my settings. Any ideas why and how to stop it?

    Will this Leach into My Tank?

    Hey guys, so I was doing my monthly maintenance cleaning out my powerheads and return pumps and such. Recently, I changed out the propellers in one of my Accela return pumps because the rod holding the propeller broke. So I ordered a replacement one through Premium Aquatics...

    Are Jebao Powerhead Magnets Submersible?

    I'm upgrading to a Gyre and wanted to set up the powerheads on each side of my rock work along the back wall of my tank. The magnets would have to be submerged as it is an AIO with the sump on the back. Are they okay to be submerged or will they rust and possibly leach?

    Selling a brand new Vortech MP40W-QD, literally 3 days old, and used it for 10 minutes. The pump is way too powerful for my tank. My loss is your gain. I purchased it for $366.50. I think when I was attaching it to the mount, I lightly scratched the controller. Nonetheless, happy to provide...

    When should the refugium's powerhead (Intake pump) be on?

    Should my refugium's powerhead (pump) only be on when the refugium's lights are on or should it always be on? I figured if the lights are off, the algae is just resting, so no flow is needed? Also, how much nitrate reduction (%'s) can I expect a 5 gallon refugium (chaetomorpha) to have on a 100...
