Yeah, I’ve seen a couple of video’s about it. It seems the biggest problem that I can see, is that if it’s in a cabinet, under the tank, it can be a pain. My sump is in another room behind the aquarium and I would have a lot of room. Other than space restrictions, it doesn’t look to bad. I am just concerned about the smell, because my wife, even though she has smoked for almost her adult life and now she doesn’t, still has a nose like a bloodhound. She can smell the slightest odors, long before I can. The fish room, where the sump is located, is the closet of the room where she does her artwork and computer work. Bad smells would not be good. Thanks for responding Spieszek, I do appreciate it.
Once I figured out how to use it, with the help of my son, it is great. I not computer literate, I a computer idiot.
I looked at the reef waves. The only thing I didn’t like is you couldn’t buy one wave maker pump with controller and then just one pump without controller. With the Ice Cap I could and it was cheaper. I have two pumps and only the one controller that run both. You might take that into consideration before you buy One.
Yeah, when I was checking them out, I was going to get the Reefwaves but I asked Marine Depot, they said with the Reefwave you couldn’t just purchase another pump alone, you had to buy two pumps and two controllers. They said that that was the only way right now with the reef wave. That’s why I bought the Ice Cap.
No, I haven’t had that problem. Mine were intact when I received it and I haven’t hade a problem since. I did have a problem with the motor, it just wasn’t working correctly, made a grinding noise. I let Marine Depot know and they sent me a brand new one. No problems since.
