Re: Wave Making Stuff

When they are new, they work well. Flow is decreased ALOT, so you'll need a powerhead bigger than you'd use for straight flow.

They can be touchy and fail to work after a while. But, others swear by them. I tended to swear AT mine alot.

I love my scwd.

Re: Wave Making Stuff

So far I have only used one in my 10g top off tank, the tank is full of RO water so their is no problem with it sticking...just keeps my RO water circulating until its pumped into the main display for top off.
