  • Works great, Keeps fish happy
Size: 480 GPH
They last about 2 years of constant use. Great value and never had a single problem.

  • Great Little Wave Maker for Small Tanks
Size: 480 GPH
The AQUANEAT Circulation Pump is a compact and efficient solution for adding water movement to smaller aquariums. Its 480 GPH flow rate is powerful enough to keep the tank clean and simulate natural currents without disturbing fish or plants. The suction cup mount holds the pump firmly in place, even after weeks of use. It runs quietly, which is a big plus if your tank is in a bedroom or quiet space. The swivel head makes it easy to direct the flow where it’s needed most. Setup was straightforward, and it started working right out of the box with no issues. For the price and performance, this pump is a solid addition to any small to mid-size tank. ... show more

  • Powerful
Size: 480 GPH
Provides great circulation in my 75 gallon tank, but I do think it’s too strong. I have to point it at the side of the tank so that my fish aren’t thrown around.

  • Great Little Pump For A Bigger Tank
Size: 480 GPH
I have a 42-gallon tank and the Aquaneat circulation pump is a great little pump just too much water flow for my application. Will be returning it as It's not adjustable; so, looking for one that is. Noise level was not noticeable, and the size was perfect for my application. It was a breeze to install with a long cord. ... show more

  • Works Well For 2 1/2 Months, But Then...
Size: 480 GPH
Plenty of power for the price, but not too much power for my tank (40 gallons). Really clears up the water in combination with an in-tank foam filter and an exterior canister filter. The fish also love to play in the current it creates. However, as another Amazon customer ('mike') mentioned in their review ('Great Until It Stops Working'), mine stopped working after the exact same amount of time. I purchased mine on Sept. 9 and noticed it was no longer working on Nov. 24; and it was no longer returnable. Initially I couldn't figure out how to take it apart, but again thanks to mike, I was able to twist apart the basket. (There's a simple notch-thread in the middle of the basket, but it seems to be threaded backwards.) I pulled out the impeller and, not finding any obstruction, just put it back together, put it back in the tank, and plugged it back in. It was working fine again. It seems like the impeller gets disconnected from whatever spins it. Initially I thought this may have been due to the fish nudging the basket around, or that the wave maker should be mounted horizontally or pointing upward so that the impeller doesn't gradually slide away from whatever spins it. So I adjusted the angle too. I also attached a piece of thread to the basket so I would know on sight whether or not it was working (see picture). On 12/2, the propeller was still spinning but the flow was dramatically reduced. Again the impeller seemed to have slipped away from whatever spins it. I pushed it back in, increased the angle upward. On 12/3 the same issue recurred. I took out the impeller, which had a fair amount of play (a gap between the elements on the thin metal rod that runs through them). I pushed on both ends to try to reduce the amount of play, put it back together again, and it's working again. But I'm really sick of dealing with this over and over. I expect it to fail again, at which point I will upgrade. I don't recommend this product. 12/8: The wave maker failed again. Throwing it out. Don't buy this, it's a piece of junk. ... show more

  • Good but only for a week

Worked good for a week and died completely out the blue. Update: cleaned it with rodi water and it started working good again.

  • Feisty little thing, very quiet.
Size: 480 GPH
More powerful than expected. Not disappointed. I wish it had some sort of flow control. Wouldn't recommend if you got small critters in the tank, because it will get ugly, be it freshwater fry, on that saltwater anemone you thought was going to stick on a rock. Keep that in mind. Super quiet. The mounting is a bit wonky and one must mess with it for a while before you get the hang of it. It'll rearrange substrate every time it falls (note the mention to the unexpected might of this thing) which is great incentive to get it right, tho I wish it was easier. Sand everywhere, twice. Not even mad. ... show more
