Why You’ll Love It
The HG951 Wave Maker Pump creates realistic, adjustable water movement for freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Compact yet powerful, it delivers 360° circulation that enhances oxygen exchange, simulates natural currents, and prevents dead zones. With a smart digital LED controller featuring 4 wave working watts and 8 wave modes, speed, and power settings, this quiet and efficient pump is easy to install in tanks with glass thickness up to 0.6 inches. The corrosion-resistant magnet-suction base can be hidden in tanks or sump tanks.
Key Features
Customized Flow in 4 Modes
The intelligent HG951 aquarium wave maker can set various flow modes, power, and frequency according to sunrise, sunset, day, and night to simulate waves in 4 modes:
-Pulse wave: Simulating sea waves makes the fish and coral feel like they are in the sea.
-Sine wave: wave flow is gentle and slow;
-Constant speed wave: blows away fish manure, feed residues, and residue to keep the tank clean.
-Random wave: the wave making watts and the wave speed are random, and combine the 3 other wave modes randomly.
Smart LED Controller
The digital LED controller gives you complete control over the pump’s performance with adjustable wave speed, power levels, and timing settings. It offers four wave modes (pulse, sine, constant, and random), eight speed levels, and four working power levels (40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%).
The controller divides a day into 5 time intervals, and each has a different preset wave. If you don’t like the preset waves, you can set them yourself.
– Dawn (05:30–07:30): 80% power with a gentle pulse wave at medium speed.
– Sunrise (07:30–09:30): 100% power with a steady pulse wave at a slightly higher speed.
– Daytime (09:30–14:00): 100% power with a continuous pulse wave for maximum water movement.
– Sunset (14:00–16:30): 100% power with a soft sine wave that gradually slows down.
– Night (16:30–05:30): 40% power using a constant speed wave for quiet nighttime circulation.
10M Feeding Mode
The system also includes a feeding mode that pauses operation for 10 minutes, plus a memory function that automatically restores your last settings after a power interruption.
Quiet Operation
The safe 24-volt DC-controlled wave generator has energy-saving magnetic thrusters and motors to quietly circulate water, making soft waves, and the waves are 360-degree diffusion, eliminating dead spots. When it’s working, the sound is lower than 30dB.
Magnetic Mounting
You can install it anywhere using a dual-magnet system that makes installation fast and secure, even through thick glass. The pump rotates 360° for total control of water direction and flow pattern.
Easy to Clean & Safe
The hygger 951 wavemaker pump is easy to assemble and disassemble by hand. The little propeller is covered by a shield to prevent fish from suction.
Usage Tips
Pump installation:
- Place the pump 15–20 cm (6–8 in) below the water’s surface.
- Ensure the unit is fully submerged before powering on.
- Attach the magnetic base securely to the tank wall.
- Connect to the controller and plug in.
- Adjust the desired mode and speed using the controller.
Maintenance Tips
- Clean the power head regularly to prevent buildup and maintain performance.
- Keep the controller and adapter dry — they are not waterproof.
- Do not operate the pump dry; ensure it’s always submerged.
- If the impeller jams (error 7), unplug, gently rotate the fan to release it, and restart.
Other Useful Tips
- In Random Mode (Mode 4), power and frequency adjustments are disabled, such as 1040, 2040, 3040, 4040, and 5040.
- In Constant Mode (Mode 3), the frequency cannot be changed, such as 5138, 5238, 5338, and 5438.
- If the motor runs in reverse, clean the impeller and reassemble it properly.
- Error code 7 indicates that the impeller is stuck. You need to unplug the power and take it out, let the motor fan turn a few times, and then restart it.

Exactly what I wanted!
Great equipment for budget aquarists. Not every piece of equipment ‘has to be’ super expensive. Hygger has made some very nice, affordable, high quality stuff. My mini wavemaker works phenomenally, has great control and settings, and is perfect for my tank. On top of all that, it didn’t cost nearly as much as all the others I looked at.
I bought this product in Amazon and I just like to say thank you for making an affordable and good quantity product. Works excellent in my 40 G tank and I will bought my second one, but I see you have a new product the wave maker.
I grabbed one of these Hygger wave makers and so far I love it. Was a bit tricky to understand how to work at first. I found a YouTube of someone opening the box and setting up and it helped. There is a sample of a daily set up which I used and once I actually saw what it was doing it was easier to adjust. I came back to purchase another one for my other tank. These are a nice low profile, they are QUIET and easy to clean. They are a good choice for a new Aquariest for an affordable cost.
This Hygger wavemaker is perfect, you can set the flow for however you want. I had just recently gotten into corals and this wavemaker gives the perfect flow for them. It also has 10 minute shut off feature for feeding time. I love this wavemaker.
