Morning everyone. Anyone here have experience with Hygger power heads/ wave makers?
They are about the same as jebao, some look identical, others have controllers like other Chinese no names.

I've bought a few and they worked fine. Price is usually more than jebao.

In your opinion what gives better flow? The wave makers or typical powerheads? My tank is the standard 180 gal. 6x2x2

A combination, gyres work great for giving a nice wide flow through the tank, but rockwork and the like can create dead spots.

In that size of a tank I would definitely use gyres, throw a powerhead where you need the extra flow.

@billyocean is setting up a large tank about that size and is using the largest jebao gyres. Let him chime in on this.

@Thuan loves her gyres too, she has a 180g I believe.

Would love to hear others opinions. Especially on quantity and placement. I figured I would need 2 gyres for sure.

Each tank is different. For my 180 lps/soties/nems/torches, I use Jebao SCP 180 only on 2 pwr on one end and an MP40 on the other. For my 65 sps heavy, I have MP40 and Octo pulse 2+. The Jebao are beasts as have used all of them SCP 90, 120, 150, 180. I also like the Jebao SLW30. It's a nero 5 knock off, but it work
