Current USA eFlux 660 Powerhead Kit Review

Hi all,

I bought this pump kit along with another 660 powerhead for my 55 gallon. I have a dual sunsun brand powerhead on there but it is just too strong for the tank and is making coral placement difficult. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this bundle and if so do you like it or not? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

I have one. It's nice because it's really small and compact, however I would have liked it to have a random wave option, but the pulsing option is good too. I also wished it had more power, but it's pretty powerful for a small powerhead, and you can dial in your desired flow which is nice.

Thanks for the response! I was a bit confused because I saw on the remote that it had different settings like surge, stream and wave- does the system allow you to have it set a certain way to alternate between those settings based off of time or do you have to manually press the buttons to activate those flows?

There's no timer or daily settings for the pumps only the lights.

So if you want to change the flow you have to do it manually.

Correct. However many Other powerheads like the maxpect gyre have a random wave option whereas this is more like it turns on and off at a set interval, so the pulse has very short pulses, but the intervals you set remain constant.
