Do wavemakers get weaker over time.

I'm pretty sure they do. I had a Jebao that was on steriods for my tank and I had to dial it back to about 25%. Over time (despite regular cleanings) I found myself increasing the speed. Finally, it was barley moving any water on 100% and eventually just stopped all together. I swapped out controllers at various times to see if that made any improvements and it didn't.

This may be a problem. Perhaps some new Jebao pumps. I just received a new MP60 dry side to repair one I dropped. I will compare it to the old one next to it.
I am not investing in 3 new dry sides. ~ $1200 Nope.
I would try the large Jebao copies but didn't see the big one available a few weeks ago when I looked. Just MP40 sized ones.

Honestly not sure what size compares to the 40 (didn’t look) but this one shows up to the DMP 65 in stock -

$401.65 with shipping. A little less than the Vortech MP60 westside I ordered at $424.46
We will see.
