      Wavysea plus

      I like it. Small, silent, price is ok. It's real cool to see the wave effect hit the corals then pause then hit em again!. I've got mine on a 1260 and turning a Tunze 6080. Lots of oscillated flow!.

      I am considering getting one so it can hit any dead spots I have in my tank.

      However, is the flow adjustable and if so, is the max flow basically the output of the return pump?

      I was told that it was adjustable but I dont think you can increase the flow more than what the pump can produce. Thanks.

      You can't increase flow, unless you toss on an eductor/penductor on the output. To put it simply, the WavySea device is basically a oscillating 90 deg. elbow. I have a WavySea and am EXTREMELY satisfied with it. My only gripe is probably with the controller. It's kinda bulky IMO and they could've done a better job to make it smaller and more compact. Otherwise, it's a very easy "plug-and-play" piece of equipment which is reliable and good at mixing things up.

      I love mine. I have it hooked up to a mag 12 pump. I am looking to get a tunze attachment to add my 6080. Much better quality than a seaswirl.

      I've got 2 on my tank. I did a slight mod. The return runs through them and also have a mj1200 mounted to it. I love em.

      Modded MJ1200's? That would be bad-ass... esp if you had them on a wave-maker set to turn on/off every minute or so to pulse some flow.

      BTW, I modded mine too but it's not as nice as an MJ1200. I basically drilled a small hole in the plumbing to cut the siphon which decreases backflow into my sump during a black-out or when my return pump fails. Works like a charm!

      I didn't mod the 1200's. (they just don't seem to last very long modded) I just attached them below the return and then hooked them to the reefkeeper2's wavemaker and enabled night mode so it calms down at night. Works pretty darn well.

      What makes the WavySea Plus different than the WavySea?

      Some sort of powerhaed bracket?

      3600GPH vs 2300GPH max flow-thru rate. + models can be hooked up to pressure-rated pumps.
