IceCap 4K Gyre Flow Pump with Controller – Elevate Your Water Movement
The IceCap 4K Gyre Flow Pump from IceCap redefines aquarium circulation with precision-engineered design and advanced cross-flow technology. Found under Pumps and Flow, it moves water evenly across your tank, erasing dead spots and encouraging coral growth. Built on licensed Maxspect Gyre innovation, this system delivers broad, natural motion instead of narrow jets, giving your reef the balanced energy it needs.
Smart Control and Flexible Mounting Options
When fine-tuning water movement, control is everything. The included controller lets you customize flow to suit any reef setup. Whether you prefer smooth waves or consistent current, the IceCap 4K Gyre Flow Pump adapts easily. You can find it under the Wavemakers section, where other high-performance circulation tools make fine-tuning flow effortless.
Flow Modes Include:
-
Constant Flow: Steady, uninterrupted output.
-
Stream Wave: Creates rhythmic surges that mimic natural ocean movement.
-
Random Mode: Varies output intensity for organic, reef-like motion.
-
Pulsing Mode: Generates bursts of current to keep detritus suspended.
-
Cycle Mode: Alternates patterns for evenly distributed flow.
Mount it vertically, horizontally, or close to the surface — its slim magnetic base keeps it secure and unobtrusive in your display.
Designed for Quiet Strength and Long-Term Performance
The IceCap 4K Gyre Flow Pump doesn’t just move water — it transforms the way circulation works in your aquarium. Dual propeller cages create a smooth, linear stream that enhances gas exchange and nutrient delivery. Constructed with corrosion-resistant components, it runs quietly and efficiently for years of dependable use.
Core Benefits:
-
Linear gyre flow eliminates dead zones.
-
Streamlined body integrates cleanly into tank design.
-
Adjustable twin cages provide directional flexibility.
-
Compatible with both glass and acrylic tanks.
-
Energy-efficient motor draws only 13–45 watts.
Advanced Features for Everyday Use
Smart automation makes this pump easy to live with. A 20-minute Feed Mode temporarily reduces flow while corals feed. Night Mode automatically senses low light and slows the pump for nighttime calm. The Controller Lock prevents unintentional setting changes, giving peace of mind during maintenance.
It also integrates seamlessly with HYDROS WaveEngine controllers (sold separately) for synchronized multi-pump control — ideal for reefers expanding into complex systems. Pair it with accessories like aquarium cleaning supplies or frag racks to streamline your maintenance routine.
