Tank Wave WITHOUT using a wavebox!

Wave with.........No Box! SeeSaw wave motion using only a single Tunze Stream 6100. It's all about figuring out the correct resonant frequency of the tank. The controller is a simple on-off timer that is adjustable down to 1/10ths of a second using a 555 Timer IC. Total project cost is $5 in parts.

The wave is not as smooth and tall like the one with a box, but the point of this project is to illustrate that wave without the box CAN be done.

UPDATE: Had to use a Power Ranger song to avoid that copyright BS thing. GO GO POWER RANGERS!!

On / off  on/Off that pump will burn

@paulochinak

Nope. The pump is a 6100 which has no clutch (unlike a 6060 or 6080) It's been operating like this (on-off-on-off) for about 8 years now. Tunzes are amazing, reliable pumps.

you should post another vid showing EXACTLY what you did. It looks like an awesome mod.

[Benlunt1]

looks like some awesome water flow. music might be a bit overdoing it though

Metal !!

Why not just get a small internal filter and just use the power head from it?

There like $20.

@shadowflare99 It gives a larger surface area so the water can absorb more air so the fish can breathe :)

Why We need to make wave in a aquarium ?!
