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!

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

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?
