Enhance Your Aquarium's Water Flow with YCTECH Aquarium Fish Tank Circulation Pump Wave Maker Power Head (6W 8W) Review

I read some reviews from people with 20 gallon tanks so decided to give it a try. This thing blew so hard it uprooted most of the plants in my tank. 2 inches of substrate wasn't enough to hold my plants in place. Artificial plants with weighted bases may stand a better chance. Otherwise, I really don't recommend this for someone with a small aquarium.

This shaft generator is great. It's quiet and has plenty of flow for my 75g. I use two, one on top and one on the bottom for full circulation. The downside is that the cable is too short. If you have outlets at the same level as your aquarium you should be fine, but if you have outlets at the bottom of your stand you will need an extension cord. I'm deducting 1 star for this inconvenience.

I was given this to replace a part I had that could no longer be wall mounted. Almost everything is great except for one small problem. The cable is quite short. So much so that he couldn't reach an outlet, let alone a drip loop. I had to use an extension cord for that. The magnetic base is much better compared to the suction cup. I don't think I'll ever use a suction cup again.

So, for starters, when I plugged it in it was damn loud. The blades hit the walls of the pump. Then, after a bit of fiddling, I made sure the noise stopped, but the two pumps didn't pump. They sucked, after messing with them a few times I was finally able to get the blades to spin in the right direction. It looks like they're running both ways, which they shouldn't be. Worst aquarium product I have ever received!

I don't get it, my filter moves at 525 GPH so at 1500 GPH it has to work 3x as much? However, it feels and looks like it's barely going to hit 150 gallons per hour. I even tried different page settings. My pump produces more water flow than this. I think the dates advertised on the site are not very accurate. 4.5 watts per propeller won't give you 1500 gallons per hour. I've been an engineer for 30 years now, the numbers don't lie and the advertisers do.

This product has been in my aquarium for 3 weeks. I left for 2 days, I'll be back, most of my life died. The rubber part of the cable in the water is kind of frayed. A crack in the rubber allowed a small amount of water to seep into the cord to the outlet! Short circuit in the aquarium. It was a great loss for me. I'm very disappointed and wouldn't trade anything else. Do not buy this product. See photos.

Currently returning it because it stopped working in less than a day. I don't want to mess around with a replacement because I don't trust him now. The magnet mount sticks firmly to the glass, nothing to fault about that, but the pump sits loosely in the fork mount and moves too easily. Not loud, but not very quiet either, I think part of the noise is due to the loose fork mount. I also don't like the yellow impeller that catches your eye when you look at the pump. He moved large amounts of…
