Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Only negative is that the box it came in was soaked in since weird liquid and it was all sticky and disgusting. Maintenance is easy, just distilled vinegar and cold water.

The 24vdc wall wort transformer is fairly big, but it uses a barrel connector to connect to the controller so alternate 24vdc sources can easily be used. It works great for large tanks, pushes a nice wave throughout my 6 foot tank. It also works great...  Read More

Good life for the money to me. Great pumps and great price. Easily worth it. Good product. It comes with a 1. Oz bottle and is definitely worth it.

The wave maker acts as a wave alternates strong pumps and small pumps continuously. The regulator is simple and easy to operate.

This is a good fairly wide spread wavemaker for far cheaper than competitors. Night mode and lock mode are nice for a cheap pump. I like how the pump is controllable and not over priced.



Cons

Less than 10 hours later its squeaking very loudly at high speeds. Was missing the spacer between magnets. If your wavemaker makes more noise than you think it should exchange it immediately it seams to be hit or miss with the qa.

I heavily advise you to please believe me when i say that this product is not good. Cannot recommend. Makes a horrible paper weight.

Quality


Great product works perfect for my sons aquarium!


I'm running them both in master/slave wavemaker mode with the speed set at 5 and pulse at 1/4 turn.


Controller is a bit 1990 but the who cares when the product works.


I'm pretty sure i could have gone with the smallest one they make after seeing this one perform.

Price


Jebao is one of the cheapest options out there, and is a great option for the budget reefer.


Dont expect extreme longevity at this price.

Competitiveness


Used the sow-4 on a biocube 32 and it is perfect for this size tank with a small profile.


This is my second jebao wave maker.


I figured i should get a size 4 to run in a biocube 29.


Still a little strong for a biocube i feel.
