Thoughts on Hydor Koralia products

[slief]

Yesterday I got a Hydor Koralia 1150 circulation & wave pump at the advice of my LFS.

I've been looking and came across the smart wave pump controller timer they make and was wondering what others thought of these. I will be hooking up 2 1150s.

Are they worth it?

Koralia's are OK if they remain running constantly. The issue comes if they are turned on and off with any kind of regularity. They have a tendenacy to run in reverse when turned on and off frequently.
