Yes, you can get the same effect with a Vortech. Pulsing a Powerhead in the right timing WILL create a wave as well. Just the wavebox can possibly use a smaller pump due to the isolation of the 2 bodies of water.

Ever sit in a bath and move back/forth a little bit. Or, even though its not in water, A Swing. You only apply forward energy and the result is a swinging(oscillation) or transfer of energy forward and backward, just like a wave
