myxsptlk Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Yay a package arrived in the mail today 2 resun wavemakers and in the white box... an octopus otp 3000 needle wheel pump, which I had initally bought to use with my weipro skimmer. Boy did I underestimate the size of the thing There's a cd for comparison. My bad for thinking "yea buy the biggest!!! only a few more dollars!!!" so I'll be getting an octopus skimmer from DeepBlue next payday to use with the pump. Pictures on websites really don't show the size of some of these things, check out the wave makers and again with the cd I always thought the controller was like the size of my cellphone :-? Well that's all for now folks, exams finish on friday so I'll be able to have a play around with them in the weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Gannet has 2 here had a problem with one controller, but gave it a maintenance engineer tap and it works fine they are big, so hard to hide in tank but running alright so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myxsptlk Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Got one in the refugium - big, ugly, and a crappy controller. Sorry! Hehe no worries, I think it's a bit too big too but for the price, I'm not too fussed about how it looks, if it works it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puttputt Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 , I agree, for the price they are good, and they do move some water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puttputt Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 and the thing I really don't like about the resun controllers are that you can't set the flow - they change from low - med - high, but you ncan't just have them on low, or just on high - pita.

Gannet Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 for the price of them they live up to there name, i.e. they do what they are made to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myxsptlk Posted June 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 got them in the tank today man are they big and ugly but they sure move water! funny thing is when one of them goes on the highest mode it makes the thermometer tap on the glass tap tap tap tap and I was out so my dad got freaked out being home alone and hearing tapping from a tank with no fish :lol: every minute or so he'd hear it then try to have a look to see if anything was crawling around they sure make the 4ft look a lot smaller, I'll have to try to hide them behind some rockwork or something, thank goodness I opted to have the back painted black so they blend in slightly, I wish I could say you can't see them unless you look really hard, but no, they're there, out, loud and proud. anyway pics to come in the following days, exams are over!
