Developed for Red Sea around the patented Maxspect cross-flow (Gyre-type) technology, it moves up to 7,500 L\/h (1,980 GPH) as a wide sheet of water rather than a narrow jet. Its sine-wave motor drive, vibration-damping mounts and dual bearings make it, in the manufacturer's own words, an especially quiet pulsing wave pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%;margin:20px 0;\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8e27qp61apg\" title=\"Red Sea ReefWave Silent Smart Powerful - gyre wave pump for reef aquarium\" loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn up the volume on Red Sea's official demo above — the sound of the pump is the whole point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCross-flow technology\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere a propeller pump throws a round cone of water, cross-flow generates a sheet of current across the full width of the tank that travels the length of the aquarium and returns underneath. The two impeller cages rotate 360 degrees in the bracket to aim the flow at your reefscape, the pump mounts horizontally or vertically, and forward flow is roughly 3 times stronger than reverse. Red Sea recommends mounting at least 5 cm (2 in) below the surface to prevent air suction, and includes snail guards to keep small animals out of the cages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOn-board controller and the ReefBeat app\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included controller offers 5 built-in wave programs (regular flow, uniform, step, random and alternating waves), a 10-100% intensity dial, a 30-minute feed mode and a maintenance pause. Connected to Wi-Fi through the ReefBeat app, the pump gains a 24-hour schedule with up to 10 time slots per day, a personal wave library, the surface wave, and lost-communication notifications. Up to 3 pumps can share a common schedule in sync or anti-sync — and ReefWave 25 and 45 units can belong to the same group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%;margin:20px 0;\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Zjikq2Pw0aM\" title=\"Connecting Red Sea ReefWave to ReefBeat app - official tutorial\" loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOfficial Red Sea specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue maximum flow rate: 7,500 L\/h (1,980 GPH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: 4 to 25 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 23 cm L x 7 cm W x 4 cm H (9 x 2.8 x 1.6 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended aquarium size: 45 to 120 cm (1.5 to 4 ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum glass thickness: 15 mm (5\/8 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable length: 3 m (10 ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer warranty: 24 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance, per the manufacturer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Sea recommends cleaning the impellers and cages monthly (a 1-hour soak in a 10% bleach solution, then a thorough rinse), and the motor and ceramic shaft every 6 months — calcium deposits come off with a 1:1 diluted vinegar solution, never stronger, for a few minutes only.

Nothing compares to cross-flow technology. Propeller pumps push a round cone: there are always flow gaps, blocked by the shape of the aquarium, with dead spots underneath. You can get there with several pumps, but it's always more violent — there's always a coral getting blasted. A ReefWave near the surface sends a current that crosses the whole tank and comes back underneath. We used to run Maxspect Gyres and switched to the ReefWaves: genuinely easier to clean and more reliable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy buy from ReefSolution\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthorized Red Sea dealer in Canada, with French and English support and in-store pickup in Laval.
