hygger Aquarium Wave Maker 1321 GPH 12W, Adjustable Cross Flow Pump with LED Display Controller, Magnetic DC 24V Aquarium Powerhead for Freshwater and Marine Reef Aquariums Up to 60 Gallon

We use this in our 100 gallon saltwater aquarium and it works great. I love the option to change the wave patterns. It's easy to clean and set up. It has run nonstop for a year with no issues. The only negative is that you can hear a slight noise coming from it- like a whistling noise. But it is very faint and I can only hear it when nothing else is running in my house. I changed some of the settings and I don't hear it anymore. So if you run into that problem just change the settings and I think that will take care of it.

Great wave maker. Does wonderful in my 75Gal that's 48inL x 18inW x 20inD. Anything longer than 48in though and I'd consider getting maybe 2 of them. Great crossflow for the price though. Easy-to-set and use. My African cichlids love swimming in the current. It was perfect for me tank.

I was just curious to see it in action. I set up a new freshwater 50 gallon and almost didn’t use it. Very impressed with it. It does make the whole tank wave back and forth. Quiet. It moves the sediment right to the Intake filter. Not too much current for the fish. I like it! I’ll have to buy one for my saltwater tanks

Works well, but pretty powerful. Does not go below 30% power. I have it in a 10 gallon reef tank with a decent amount of rock that disrupts flow. I would recommend a larger tank for freshwater application or you have to get creative with your hardscape. This is a very active reef, great for sps, selective location for softies and lps coral so nothing is beat up by current.

Ive had hygger products before and I will say you get what you pay for. I've given them plenty of chance and once again I get a cheaply made, trash product. I opened the box and first think I realized was how flimsy it was, I rinsed it off with freshwater then installed into tank, plugged it in and immediately hear I high pitched almost squealing sound, within seconds I get a "ER04" error with states it's an obstruction. It's brand new and has nothing obstructing anything. I take it back out of the tank and look into it. The gyre spins pretty freely. I put it back in and repeat, same thing. Like I said I have given their products multiple chances and this one fails immediately. Some of their wavemakers lasted a few months before failure. Beware of this product from hygger and if you can avoid the company period. Spend a few more dollars and get a maxpect, or tunze or ai.

First purchase of this item was great. Works fantastic and controlling the power is critical for my fish while allowing moving water to prevent algae. Needed a second one to better direct the flow on the other side of the tank. Unfortunately, after getting it set up, I received error code 4 which indicates something is blocking. Nothing was blocking. Reset it a couple times and would work for about 1 minute before the error happened again. Not a problem, returned for replacement. This is where the issue is critical. I received a clearly used device. Was willing to work with it but it didn't even turn on without getting the error code 4. Apparently this device has a big problem with this error code. Returned it and didn't try to get a new one again since it made me feel like the one that has been working for a couple weeks now will eventually have this error happen and make it unusable. Not acceptable for the quality I thought I was getting.

I bought one of these to try out in my mixed reef tank in Sept 2023. Found I liked it so much I bought a second in Nov 2023 and got rid of the Hydor Koralia circulation pumps in my tank (it is now Mar 2025). These are simple to set up, mount with strong magnets, and you can slave the two together if you want. Flow rate is adjustable as well as the frequency presets for wave making. I have one at each end of my tank aimed at the other, but each is set differently to promote random flows. The construction is very good and I found they even have ceramic shafts for the pump impellers to spin on. These were less than 50% of the cost of similar "name brand" ones sold in the US market (that are probably made in China as well). I am very happy with these and they are a good buy.

I have had Hygger equipment before so I know the brand is good. Installed this on a 10 gallon low so it pushes waste up to filter. It’s been a couple days and seems to work great. The build quality is good. Not many companies have a small gyre. It can rotate up and down and the magnet is strong. Controller is easy to program. I like the other controller they have for the mini Powerhead better but this one does the job. You can deff hear it when it’s on, but not that loud. The size of it is super compact. The power at 100 is surprising.
