Yeah they admit it reduces life to some extent. If the average tank lasts 20-25 years, maybe it will only last 17-20 with the wavebox. most people don't keep the same tank that long anyway.

I avoided one for that very reason until I came across a deal on a wavebox that was too good to pass up.
It does such a great job that I haven't looked back. Paul

Yea after seeing a few in person running, I'm a firm believer in the Tunze Wavebox. Tanks last forever anyway like someone said, between 25 and 35 years. I think PaulB on the forums has had his tank set up for something like 30 years or something insane like that with no problems (no wavebox either, just showing longevity of normal tank). I think 99.999% of all people in this hobby will either change tanks, get burnt out and leave the hobby, or some other reason why they won't have the same tank more than 10 years.
I only worry about getting one because I bought a used tank from someone and the silicone job looks like crap and is peeling up on the edges, so I wouldn't push it with a second-hand tank, but new, forgettaboutit. |
