Got mine today too. Can't use the w1, w2, w3 or else because they are too powerful and my sand is getting blown away. But overall, its a killer price for such equipment.

Just a heads up for those who would like to know the size....ITS HUGE! The diameter is around 4" and the length too.

Its only 3 5/8", so not that much bigger than a tunze at 3 1/2".
Very comparable on size.

Yah. After turning it on, I realized how much debris my tank had lying around the rocks :P And the fishes were like HEY YOUUUUUU!

Ya, I think I figured out a way, Im just getting a few things together.
Ill post up what I find and results, its going to be very similar to what I did with the eco pumps I bought.
I just have to do a bit more reading.

Ok, parts should be here tomorrow. I have a rough schematic, this will eliminate the jeboa controller all together and the profilux should have total control. I hope.......
If all goes as planned I have plenty of pictures to help out any body else who wants to do this.

Default WP25 vs WP40



Heres a picture for size comparison, should be available by months end. I think the pricing will be around $50/each.
Just so you know the prices of the WP40 have actually gone down.
Good news for everyone as far as Im concerned, affordable powerheads with the ability of wave generation or full control with a controller.
