After checking them out on ebay they are obviously utterly shameless Tunze ripoffs of the multicontoller and 6055 nanostreams. The claimed output is not clear but only appears to be up to "2000 l" which would be pathetic for a tank your size. Even true nanostreams are only recommended for tanks of up to 4 feet in length.

With as many problems as tunze had to work out the kinks in their nanostreams, I have my doubts about the reliability of these knock-offs. And I'm sure you'd get top quality customer service and warranty support from this seller as well (NOT!).

Lastly, this stuff isn't CSA certified so if it ever burned down your house insurance wouldn't cover your losses.

As far as a Wavebox is concerned, it doesn't count towards flow - Roger Vitko of Tunze confirms as much. Waveboxes are only to create a back and forth wavelike motion in your tank as opposed to actually generating flow throughout the tank.
