View Full Version : New pump/wave maker advice.
Hey all
I am looking to add an new pump or a wave maker to my RSM250. As I am going more SPS heavy I need more flow.
Current setup:
2 stock pumps at 713.00 gph
1 Mp10ew at around 60% ?
Hydor Koralia Evolution at 600 gph
I am looking to drop the Koralia and add something else. I was looking at adding a used Mp10 but would like to have warranty..But 300.00 is a little bit more than I want to spend to add a bit more flow.
Can anyone recommend anything that would work well and not cost a ton?
I was thinking about the JBJ Oceanstream Circulation Pump/Powerhead + Duo Wavemaker Kit 1600 gph but have not heard much about these but the price looks good.
Any help would be great!
Thanks

Very happy with the Jebao WP60 I got recently from Reef Supply Canada but you would probably need the WP25 at the most. It is a very powerful line of wavemakers. Mine does my 165g mixed reef pretty much by itself at the very lowest setting!
Awesome I will have to check them out!
Thank you!

Nick at reef supply canada.com is getting them in soon. He lives in west kelowna. I'm hoping to pick up a wp40 for my 90 gallon. Moving the tank to a new house tomorrow though so depending how smooth that goes I may not get a wp40 and end up with a lot of frags for a quick sale lol

You can get them from Fish Street as well for about the same price shipping and exchange included. Reef Supply has been out of the WP-25's for awhile now.
I sent an email to Nick to also see when he would be getting some in. Looks like I can also get some off ebay. Fish street didnt have any on their website from what I could tell

Fishstreet does have the wp25 on their site and in stock as well as the other models

I think Nick is expecting stock either this week or next and since you're both in Kelowna, it's pretty hard to beat that. I would only look at the WP20 and ramp it waaay down as it tends to have a very hard stream.

I was able to chat with Nick and I think that is the way to go.
Did you mean the WP25? Or is there a WP20?
