Review on ๐ŸŒŠ AQAMAI KPS Wi-Fi Connected Wavemaker Pump 370 to 1050 GPH by Hydor by Jill Parrott

Revainrating 5 out of 5

1050 g/h? More like 700 g/h. However, this is a great wave generator for the price.

Replaced a broken Jebao SW2 wave generator with an Aqamai KPS in my IM Nuvo 10 reef tank with lots of SPS. ). The Aqamai KPS in random mode at full speed (which should be 1050g/h) seems underpowered for its performance as others have noted. I would say that KPS has a true maximum flow rate of no more than 700 gallons per hour. At the same time, it has a wider flow pattern and handles the water movement on the bottom and sides of the tank better than the jebao. 8 hours of use and I get a nice polyp enlargement. The iOS app is a little "work in progress" but overall I like the controls and was able to set up a 24 hour schedule which I doubt I'll want to mess with in the future, so the clunkiness is the app really one. temporal inconvenience. Overall, this pump is suitable for a mixed or SPS dominant 10-15 gallon reef aquarium, although it will almost certainly not last for more than that. This can be fine for a 20 gallon reef if you keep mostly soft corals.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
