I voted no. That also includes powerheads/wavemakers

1: We are trying to create our own little oceans in our homes and fish are constantly on the hunt for food and I'm sure they don't wait for currents to stop to eat. They can work for their food.
2: I must not have chose my livestock wisely or have far too much flow if they can't capture food.
3: My sump fills up too high from the overflow draining in to it which affects the skimmer and will cause an overflow of collection cup.
4: My return pump is in the basement and I'm too lazy to walk downstairs to unplug.
5: I think the start/stop might cause added wear on thd pump.
