Jebao WP25 Information

[ERivera65]

How big is your tank? Can you point the pump up toward the surface?

Its a 29 biocube. I am going to try and point it more upward. Right now I have the pump in a corner and its pointing diagonally to the other corner. Its basically blew some sand on the bottom left corner of the tank where my green wellso brain is. Ive had to run the pump in w1. Here's a pic.

Have you tried Else mode? That seems to be not as strong as W1.

Else mode blows sand around in my tank. W1 does not since its pulses of waves

barebottom 57g sps tank - one wp25 or two both dialed down a little?

 

[Sacohen]

2 if dialed down and positioned correctly.

65 none on dimmers . sugar fine sand took some fiddling but .
Just learn how it's bouncing off your walls.

 

[Sacohen]

Placement is the key to these pumps.
They are very strong pumps and even dialing them back with a voltage reducer is not the best option.

Like anything, Placement, Placement, Placement.

I also suggests of another Powerhead with Linear to add to the jeabo with smaller tank

Like opposing? one powerhead flowing towards the Jebao's flow?

Yes but a constant flow it will help randomize flow in the tank

Awesome. I fixed it yesterday. Hopefully it will work like this. So far very little sand movement in these positions of the pumps with the Jebao in else mode. The other powerhead is a koralia 425 gph.

ok well I said I was gonna try a wp25 in my 20l tank, well I really didn't wanna pull them from my main tank so I used one of my wp40's in the 20l

don't mind the end of the video, I never edited it and I was in a hurry to unplug the pump.

Lol.Gotta love it !!!!!!!

 

[shifty51008]

oh yeah these are nice pumps for the price so far.

I should have done this outside and let it run to see how much water spills out before the wave can't push anymore

shifty, I haven't laughed that hard in a while! I'm so glad you didn't edit the end of the video. Thanks man.

 

[Sacohen]

I figured that's what happened when you said...

"don't mind the end of the video, I never edited it and I was in a hurry to unplug the pump."

Obviously that was W1. Was it full speed or not?

 

[Dazedman00]

I have a 90g. Would one 25 with a koralia 425 make good flow or would I need two 25s. I was thinking I only need the 1 25 placed nice and long opposite the koralia or is that not enough opposing force?

LOL maybe it was a good thing to not edit it, at least it was done in the laundry room so the wife didn't care alot about the water on the floor.

that was W1 S2, I was gonna switch to S1 but it was already to much

 

[Sacohen]

Geez. That was S2. I'd hate to see what S1 would have been like. It may have blown the end off the tank. :lmao:

 

[Megatrev62]

I like the W1 in S3 mode for my 90. The W1 SI made me sea sick.
