I love how it as a self-cleaning impeller, anything that I don't have to clean saves time! Who wouldn't like to have a controller that comes with the powerhead and you don't have to buy separate that will allow you to control it from your phone? Also, it's pretty sweet how it will alert you for running dry, blocked rotors or loss of signal
The Sicce XStream SDC has been one of the powerhead wavemakers I've had my eye on. It has many features which I consider valuable and why it is on my short list. Let me list them:
Phone app controllable
Fully customizable programing and scheduling
Multiple preset programs
Wide flow
360° adjustable
Dry running protection
Alert notifications
Temperature sensor
Battery backup option
With all these features, and at a very reasonable price, I consider it one of the best options on the market.
I like control with the phone app. I have a sicce return and a power head. These pumps have always run good for me with little to no maintenance. Great pumps!
Official entry: like the self-cleaning impeller, wide flow, and most interestingly the temperature sensor in the pump! If implemented correctly, this pump could save your tank from a heater accident! Love it!
