TUNZE NANO WAVEBOX 6206 TRIAL

Every inch of your live rock become active, all coral polyps are exposed to flow and there are no hiding places for sediments anymore. Which greatly improves the biological dynamics of the tank. Once this critical frequency has been found, there is no longer a single drop of water in the aquarium which no longer moves, even behind the rock work. And every aquarium is specific, depending on length, height, width, shape, aquascape, return flow…

This can take some trial and error to set up properly, until we reach the maximum water displacement. This is made possible by a special Wave controller for this use: if the pump is in service for 0, 85 sec., It should be stopped for 0.85 sec., Like a metronome. It will therefore be necessary to find the right frequency of on/off of the pump to displace the largest possible body of water. This is only part of the system: in order to cause an efficient movement of water, these cycles of rising/falling out of the box must be done with a frequency very specific to each aquarium according to its length. The system is brilliant by its simplicity. It is thus possible to cause an up and down movement in the box like a mechanical piston but here, the only rotating part is a small pump propeller. When this pump stops, the water rushes back into the box through the large opening of the pump. When the pump is put into service, the box empties almost to the level of the pump.

The Tunze wave Box is an old and proven technology, that first came out in 2003, just a year after the first propeller pump ‘Stream’. The mechanical principle of a waterbox is simple: a closed box has a Stream pump in the lower part and a good support system.

The gyre assure a general flow, and the wave box add the swell touch so we get a large flow, and the pumping in it which is very natural. Coupled with our gyre system, the result is fantastic. Specifications: Dimensions: 4.3' L x 3.5' W x 10' H Low voltage - 100-240V/50-60Hz, average 10W Immersion depth: approx. We tried quite a few wave making option, but could never reach the perfect result we get using a classic Tunze Wave Box.Ī gentle, slow, homogenous, vertical, swing in an out seemed impossible to achieve with current wave makers options until we came back to the basics, and got some new old school Tunze Wave Box.

We were looking for a correct way to balance these long dancing tentacles in and out, the way we see it in the ocean. then you turn up the voltage.We’ve been testing quite a few wave making machines in the last few months since we are now producing a large amount of corals inland, especially Torches, Branching Hammers and Frogspawn. And (ONLY) when you get the swiiish-swooosh. If u follow the steps in the book (or what i'd summarised for you), you should get a decent movement.Īlways start lowest, tune VERY slowly. there are 2 variables that affect this. Alot of mini bubbles if i turn the voltage too high. The Nano Wavebox is a very effective way to generate waves insid. I can see the motor moving but i dun seems to see it turn direction. Tunze Nano Wavebox 6206 Product Demo In todays video, were going to take a look at the Tunze Nano Wavebox 6206. A few more questions if you dun mind answering.ġ) How far is the top of the box away from the water surface?Ģ) What is the height of the wave you are getting?įor my case, even if i set it at highest voltage, i dun see much surface water movement (i.e.
