Why You’ll Love It
Create a clean, oxygen-rich, and dynamic aquatic environment with the hygger 010 Wave Maker. It is designed to simulate natural water currents in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Perfect for fish, coral, and aquatic plants, this compact wavemaker enhances circulation, improves oxygenation, and keeps debris off the tank bottom.
Key Features
360° Adjustable Flow
Rotate the head freely to direct the water flow. A 360° rotation for easy flow direction control can eliminate dead zones and maintain even temperature distribution.
Strong Magnetic Base
Fully submersible and safe for saltwater use; includes a secure mounting system and magnetic grip for glass tanks of various thicknesses, with a tool-free installation.
Quiet & Energy Efficient
Consumes only 6W–10W depending on the model, offering powerful water movement while keeping energy costs low—Powerful flow ranging from 1050 GPH to 2100 GPH, with low energy consumption (5W–12W), ideal for a wide range of tank sizes—from 20 to 60 gallons or 75–130 gallons.
Natural Current Simulation
It mimics river and ocean flow to encourage natural swimming behavior, support fish body development, and remove waste and uneaten food, resulting in a cleaner, more active ecosystem.
Sump Tank Compatible
The compact design fits easily into sump systems for more flexible installation options. Its magnetic suction can be submerged in the sump tank.
Usage Tips
To ensure optimal performance and long-term reliability of the hygger 010 Wave Maker, follow these best practices:
- Always fully submerge the unit before powering it on to prevent motor damage.
- Handle the magnetic base carefully—twist gently to detach it from the glass to avoid injury or tank damage.
- Position the wave maker at mid or lower levels of the aquarium to lift debris and improve circulation.
- Install the wave maker opposite the filter outlet to create a continuous, circular water flow and enhance overall circulation.
- Angle the water flow across the length of the tank (not directly at the walls) to promote a more natural, widespread current.
- Use the 360° rotating head to target specific areas, remove dead spots, and evenly distribute oxygen and temperature.
- For larger tanks, install two units in opposing corners to ensure complete, balanced water movement throughout the tank.
