By using one of the Direct Drive ports on the front of the WaveEngine, it is possible to connect pumps from various brands such as IceCap, Reef Octopus, and Maxspect which means you can run 4 pumps with one power source. With the use of these Direct Drive ports, you do not require the external controllers that come when you purchase these pumps. If you're running 4 pumps, think of all the mess you could clear from your stand not having to use four power bricks and four controllers, and instead using only one controller. Due to the rising popularity of WaveEngine and other brands, companies such as IceCap are now offering ""pump solely"" models of their equipment which don't include the controller or power supply.

Gyre 4K Gyre 4K Uses Revolutionary Crossflow Technology

Wavemakers excel at creating waves. While waves are breathtaking to view when they're in motion, they're making the majority of water vertically, up and down and down, but with relatively little horizontal motion, particularly close to in the middle of an aquarium. However they excel in transporting the fluidity of the water moving from one end in the tank to next. The water's flow is enough to cause it to bounce back off the opposite direction to ensure the full circulation of the aquarium. i.e. producing ""gyre flow.""

Why has Gyre pump taken over the world of aquariums to the forefront? Three main reasons:

  1. They do not leave dead areas in your aquarium.
  2. This flow will be evenly dispersed across the entire aquarium.
  3. The water bounces from the opposite side of the tank creating a complete circulation for your Gyre pattern.
The three main points are against the efficiency of propeller pumps that once controlled our pastime. They can certainly transport water. However, they donaEUR(tm)t perform it as effectively and as effectively as Gyre! For instance: Advantages of Propellers with Standard Nozzle Pumps
  1. The ) Relatively weak water movement that leaves dead spots in their aftermath.
  2. B)There is a massive flow in the center however, it is not present elsewhere. This makes the coral's placement difficult.
  3. C)The water movement is not as strong at the opposite side of the aquarium, and was not intended for the recirculation of water.

What makes a Gyre Generator superior to Wavemaker?

Wavemakers excel in making waves. While waves are spectacular to watch in motion, they are moving the majority of the water vertically up and down, with relatively low horizontal movementaEUR"especially near the bottom of the aquarium. However the Gyre excels at generating huge movement of water from one end of an aquarium and the opposite. The amount of water is massive that the water bounces back off of the opposite side of the aquarium in order to create a full flow within the tank. Also, we refer to it, creating a "aEURoegyre flow.aEUR"
