Smallest wavemaker

[Llyod276]

What is the 1. Smallest and 2. Cheapest option for a wavemaker? This is going into the sump to disperse dosing additives. Nothing fancy, ac DC don't care. Just needs to mix and disperse faster than the sump which is pretty slow. The quantity of water is approx 10? Gal.

Side question will a 10w heater be enough to heat a 3000ml dosing container. Has 3 sections. If I put rodi in section 2 (middle) with a heater will it heat the other 2 sections on either side to about 78°. Cause I don't want the stuff precipitating in the coolness of the basement which is about 60ish°.

1. Probably something like the Sicce Voyager Nano 1.0.
2. Probably. It may not heat either adjacent section to 78°, but it will be more than 60°.

I have the Sicce nano in my office 16g nanocube. Good pump, but it's not a wavemaker unless you plug it in to one of those timed wavemaker outlet thingies. One speed. If you want a wavemaker, then maybe the Jebao SLW-5? I have two of the SLW-10's and they move a lot of water and have performed flawlessly going up for 2 years now (I think). Multiple different programs and you can have two work together if you ever so desire.

Hyyger 1600gph, great for 70 bucks and real small

Eflux loop? And that heater should work unless you keep you house cold like I do in the winter

I feel like you can get a cheapo maxijet or some maxi jet knock off for like $17.
