Great system for 60 gallon reef tank
I have a 60 gallon square reef tank, and I wanted to get a DC wave maker. I’m not made of money, so this one looked like a good start. I’ve had it running in my tank for 2 weeks now, and I’ve really been impressed. Quiet, seems to have enough power, and the two pumps work together very well for a wave-like effect. I hope that they last, as I’m very satisfied so far.One thing to mention is that the pumps come with a filter that fits over the outside of the housing. It gets gummed up in a matter of a couple days, which affects water flow, I’m sure. I’ve heard many people take them off, and I’ll likely go that route, but just to mention that if you use them, you’ll need to clean them every few days. Not a deal-breaker by any means.Oh, and setup was super easy. Programming instructions were easy to follow as well. All in all, a great purchase and recommended.

Powerhead will burn out quickly
The programming, design, power, controllability of these pumps is on point. I would have given 5 stars. But, within a week one of the power heads burnt out. That's unacceptable. I'm not sure if this was a 1 in a million fluke or not, but I figured other people should know.Update: both pumps are dead just a few months later. This is a piece of garbage.

Don't wast your time/money with these.
Having owned an eFlux DC Flow Control 1900GPH pump for 4 flawless years I elected to replace my off name brand wave pumps for these. Unfortunately these were the biggest letdown. Getting a single pump up and running was no issue, however the flow seemed a little weak even at full power. Hooked up the second pump and it all but refused to enter sync mode. What the instructions don't tell you is you apparently need to turn off channel 3 (no pump connected) before you attempt to sync pumps 1&2, and then they will only sync up after holding the P/S button for a full 30 seconds. Pumps finally synced up and set to surge mode and set to maximum flow and what should have been the longest frequency.. Wrong. The wave/pulse indicator is reverse what you would think it should be. With only 1 LED lit it has the longest time between wave crests not the shortest as one would intuitively think. Of course no where in the instructions is this mentioned. So finally get the frequency pulse set on Pump 1 I decide to check pump 2 and despite it being in sync mode it's doing a completely different pulse than pump 1. When in sync you cant make any adjustment to pump 2. Three power cycles and a power cut later the pumps finally sync up and creating alternating wave action. Then I attempt to increase flow and the fall out of sync.. Again.. Repeating the power cycles and they are at full strength and still feel weak but finally get them where they are close to the previous pumps in wave crest and power (despite the old smaller pumps did the same thing at 1/2 power) Now comes feed mode. Enter feed mode and pump 1 stops but pump 2 goes to full blast stream mode... Take it out of feed mode and pump 1 is back in surge but pump 2 is in wave mode on totally different power and frequency settings despite being synced... That's it for these pumps. While I love the reliable DC Flow pump and highly recommend it, sadly these however.. Save your money and get something else that will actually work.

Most affordable DC wave pumps with controllability
I have a set of 660, 1050, and 2100 pumps...they are all easy to clean and work well...I ended up buying another set of pumps double the price and I regret it...these pumps are great, and current USA has emailed me back about every question I had to ask.

Works great but have to be cleaned a lot to maintain peak performance
These work great. Perfect for my 30 gallon mixed reef tank. The reason for the 4 stars is because after a year I am replacing them. I got tired of constantly having to take them apart and clean them. Once clean they work great for about a week then they get off balance and the flow drops off incrementally every day. After about two weeks there is little to no direct flow. They are also difficult to twist apart. Using a couple pairs of pliers does the trick but eventually I'm sure Ill squeeze too hard and break one. Too bad, I really like them, just too much hassle.

Lack of automation..
I bought this expecting to be able to add another power head if needed. Well after installing the two power heads I felt I needed a third.. After buying the third one and running it in my tank I realize it is not fully adjustable.When adding a third power head it can only operate in “stream mode” ( apparently it’s in the manual )(per customer service)My own opinion! I would move on to something that gives you full control instead of 2 out of the 3..A lot of products to choose from on here with full adjustability .. No point in forcing me to buy “loop” compatible components only…Overall..Don’t get “looped” into a less than advanced piece of tech!

Functional but very very noisy
This was installed on a 36 gallon tank. I was impressed at the water it could move. It is not easy to program at all. I watched the videos twice before trying. But the biggest issue is noise. One wavemaker was noisy but passable - I could have lived with it for at least a few months before getting mad about the noise. However the second wavemaker was exceedingly loud and buzzy. It resonated with the glass and water and just made a speaker out of the aquarium, and it wasn't playing the Beatles, it was loud and noisy and fuzzy and horrendous. I was disappointed as I had great hopes for this product - I have generally found Current USA products to be of good to better than good quality. This is not one of them.
