Note the two small waves to the center left – something I noticed only in photographs. Approximately 1 second later, this wave will crest on the right hand side. The wave is almost at maximum height (about 1.5″) on the left hand side of the aquarium. A wave generated by the tunze pump and controller. Adjustments are done with a rotary knob (a potentiometer).įigure 3. Sophisticated electronics allow fast cycling (approximately 1 second on and one second off) and slow cycling (2 seconds on/2 seconds off) with a practically infinite number of adjustments in between. The controller does exactly that – it controls the timing of the pump’s on/off cycles. The size of this box would make it too large for use in testing, and this concludes our discussion of the Wavebox itself. Tunze recommends it for aquaria sized from150 to 1,500 liters (39 to 396 US gallons). It is rather large and intrusive in all but the largest aquarium. The Wavebox is simply a rectangular container that houses the pump and collects water to be pumped.
