Ecotech Vortech MP60W Quiet Drive Wireless Wavemaker Pump. As aquarium pumps go this is an absolute beast of a pump and delivers up to 28000 litres per hour. For this reason, it is only suitable for large aquariums. Think how much flow this is, a tank of 180 x 60 x 60cm has a volume of around 640l. To demonstrate, if we were to use one Vortech MP60 Quiet Drive, which has the capacity to turn the volume of the aquarium 43 times an hour. It would be like, “Rubber dinghy rapids “for the fish living in there. With that said the MP60 is fully controllable and set low it could produce tremendous, large but gentle flow patterns in relatively small tanks with no effort and therefore virtually no noise. Ecotech Vortech MP60W Quiet Drive Wireless Wavemaker Pump key features The VorTech range of pumps have a unique magnetic drive coupling. Which means the rotor is in mesh with the motor through the glass via magnetism. Even though there are many controllable pumps available nowadays the VorTech range has had a few years start on the competition and with the exception of Ai’s Nero range that are pretty good too, the competition is still trying catch up. The Ecotech Vortech MP60W Quiet Drive Wireless Wavemaker Pump is easy to set up and easy to control all via any smart device using the free Mobias app Another key feature of the Vortech pump range is that the Motor is on the outside of the aquarium so consequently most of the pumps heat is lost to air.
