It appears to be but I want to know as well.

Can anyone confirm?

I've done a bit of reading on these, going to get a set for my 150 gal I think. They say they are the same as the Coral Box's but with an 18 month warranty (and also some minor improvements, which I would think will work their way into the coral boxs too, but seems like a peace of mind knowing you get the 'latest versions' when getting the RPM)

Definitely worth the extra $12 or whatever it is. I still have no problems with mine, and it great. Very wide dispersed flow, which is exactly what I needed it for. Its a bit weird to program at first, but watch the youtube video on it and it's a breeze.

Any update on the wavemakers? I just ran across these and wanted to see if you guys still love yours. Thank you

Still rocking mine well over a year later.

Looking at these for my 72 bowfront build. Would 1 on say the left side be sufficient, or would I need 2?

I would go with 2 if it was me

The intent is for lps, and a few strategic sps. 2 seems like a lot of flow, but I can dial em back I guess?

I would go with two and run them lower if needed. Better random flow and increased longevity running at lower power.

Good point. Looks like reef mode lets you randomize but cap the top output like a gyre. Back wall placement best?

hart24601 · Dec 30, 2019

I would just play around with placement. I don’t know being a bow front what would work best. I do like front to back since these have such a wide flow.

I was considering one back wall and one on side glass by the weir. I'll get em on order then. They look on back order though... Anyone know why?

Been using my pair for almost 18 months now; been very happy with them. Not a major water mover but a good choice for a smaller tank or cross flow in a larger one.

Great to hear! I figure 2 in a 72 the more that I read will give me some good random flow.
