Ecotech Marine Vortech Wireless Wave Pump MP20

Product Description:
The VorTech is beautiful and designed with simplicity in mind. A magnetic couple transmits motion through your aquarium glass and clamps the
assembly against your tank. This means you won't have to drill your aquarium, and that you can easily reposition the pump somewhere else in
the aquarium without having to move around complicated and awkward brackets.
The VorTech is the smallest propeller pump on the market when you consider how little space it occupies inside the aquarium. The motor is
outside of the aquarium, meaning the VorTech may be positioned where it will be least visible. The VorTech is elegantly discreet both in and
outside your aquarium.
Flow
The VorTech produces from 500 to 3,000 gallons per hour of low velocity gentle water current. The flow is so impressive and broad, that it
actually creates an undertow along your sand bed. You will notice an equal amount of flow going out of your pump as you will see going back
into it! Moreover, because the flow pattern is so wide, there is no reason to direction the flow, simply place the pump on the back or sides of
your aquarium and flow will be created throughout the whole tank.
Energy Savings
The VorTech is one of the most efficient pumps on the market, consuming approximately 35 watts to produce 3000 gallons per hour. More
importantly, all of the heat put out from the motor is outside of your aquarium, meaning you won't have to invest in costly chillers to keep your
tank cool.
Battery Backup Accessory
The VorTech Battery Backup will power one pump for up to 30 hours or two pumps for 15 hours each. Alternatively, multiple battery backups
can plugged in to each other to provide even more run time during a power outage. There is no other product that detects an outage and
provides as much insurance for so little money.
Wave Motion
Our new wireless wave driver will enable an MP40 pump to be upgraded to an MP40W model, providing pulsing-wave
algorithms and allowing
the creation of standing surface waves in most aquariums.
It also features a feed mode allowing you to shut your pumps down for 10 minutes
with the press of a button.
