WavySea wavemaker on RSM 130D?

[jake9015]

Hi guys,
Im wondering what your thoughts are on putting one of these on a RSM 130D instead of an Ecotech? Saw one for sale at a good price and hear that they are the Top Of The Line wavemaker! i think i would have trouble mounting but once mounted or figured out it would be awesome. Il post a picture and a link to the product i am referring to. Any input would be amazing! Thanks

Also found that even though the Nano stream bracket has not been released yet by this company that Tunze has one built for this product that is readily available.

I don't think it would be as good as an MP10. The Vortech pumps create a big undertow in addition to a wider stream of water coming out the front compared to a directional nozzle. Not to mention all the fun stuff you can do with 2 MP 10's running on opposite sides of the tank. I ran two of them on my 130D and don't think there's anything else on the market that compares.

True. But the wavy sea is only 100

Jake you might save some $$ going with that but realize there is a world of difference between the WavySea and a Vortech. You're comparing apples to bananas there. I have to admit that the MP10 is one of the best investments I've made on my RSM130D and if it died today it would be the next thing I purchased again.

A Hydor FLO Rotating Water Deflector is only $10.99 and also deflects water 360 degrees.

Save your money, look at some of the threads to upgrade to larger pumps in the 130D and put a Hydor FLO on it to get some random water flow until an MP10 is in the budget.
