CROSSFLOW WATER MOVEMENT Similar to the Maxspect Gyre flow pump, the IceCap K3 is capable of generating the iconic GYRE water movement within aquariums without breaking the bank. Single magnetic mount makes the pump simple to install. 5 Controllable flow modes and programable 24hr flow period. Why gyre generator and not wavemaker? Wavemakers excel in making waves, while waves are spectacular to watch in motion, they are in fact moving the majority of the water vertically up and down, with relatively low horizontal movement, especially near the bottom of the aquarium. On the other hand, gyre generators excel in moving sheer flow of water from one side of the aquarium to the other. The sheer flow of water is so strong that i would bounce back from the opposite site to achieve full circulation within an aquarium, ie. generating "gyre flows".   CROSSFLOW TECHNOLOGY A) Virtually no dead spots B) Evenly distributed flow rate throughout the entire aquarium C) Water bounces back from the other side to create a full circulation, ie. generating "gyre flows"     OTHER PUMPS Standard Propeller Nozzle Technology A) Dead spots with relatively poor water movement B) Very strong flow in the center, making coral placement very difficult C) Very weak flow near the other end of the aquarium CROSSFLOW WATER MOVEMENT TECHNOLOGY Unique Gyre Flow - Virtually Eliminates Dead Spots Evenly Distributed Linear Flow Discrete Design Twin Directional Flow Cages Waterproof Magnet Mount Controller with Mountable Cradle 5 Flow Modes Constant Speed Mode Pulsing Mode Gradual Pulsing Mode Random Mode And Alternating Gyre Mode 24 Hour Program Cycle 10min Feed Mode Technology licensed by Maxspect ICECAP 3K GYRE PUMP SPECIFICATIONS Dimensions (LxWxH): 12.2in x 3.1in x 1.7inWeight: 2.16lbsMax Flow Rate: ~3000gphPower Consumption: 40w - 8wIdeal for Aquariums: 25 - 100gal Power Level/Flow LEVEL1   1000GPHLEVEL2   1200GPHLEVEL3   1400GPHLEVEL4   1600GPHLEVEL5   1800GHPLEVEL6   2000GPHLEVEL7   2200GPHLEVEL8   2400GPHLEVEL9   2600GPHLEVEL10 3000GPH
