i'm disappointed with the wave modes in the wireless controller. i was hoping for something that could give more distinct bursts of strong flow, not just changing 5% over the course of 30 minutes. that way the anti-sync mode can be utilized to it's fullest coolness. and unless you have other flow in the tank to keep things mixing, pulse seems to be more of a novelty than actually useful. just rocking the same water back and forth doesn't really seem very helpful. it looks good on videos and probably sells pumps though.

the noisy pump earlier in the thread- it could just be bad alignment or need some tweaking on the pin spacer (bump it out a notch just to see). or it could be a bad motor bearing. i need to send mine in for repair as it sounds like a bunch of crickets, but i need to arrange something else to replace it till i get it back.
