Jebao Powerheads / Wavemakers

Has anyone local used these pumps? I see mixed reviews on people saying to stay away from them and others saying they are the best pumps for the money right now.

We just got ours last week and love them. For the life of me I can't remember which model Jebao they are but I know they were the new and improved ones. Not everyone can afford the pricey models, ya know. I was pretty impressed with the way they work.

My husband just told me they are RW-8. We have two of them for our 90 gallon tank.

May i ask where you bought them from? I also have a 90 gallon and looking at either the RW-8 or WP-25 models

I just got one a week ago. the 25 model. It actually moves quite a bit of water in my 90 gal. I had to dial it back to 50%. I have an additional korlia 1400 as well. My sps would do good with the 25 at full, but some of the lps would not so i had to dial back and use the 1400 to supplement a little toward the top.

So I bite the bullet and ordered 2xWP-25 models. Can't wait till they get here! :bounce2: What mode do you guys run these in?

I think you will like. im still very happy with mine. I run the w1 mode which is the wavemaker mode. i have it dialed back to 50%.

I have the 40 full blast and all my corals are fine.
