Concerned a valuable tank inhabitant might get sucked into your power head? Tired of your clean up crew crawling into your pump causing damage and making loud annoying sounds?
Your not alone.
I created this design after i had enough of my clean up crew crawling into my power heads! Not only does it make an annoying sound but it also damages the impeller on the pump.
How does it help?
This design improves the factory guard in several ways:
Protection: Additional spokes on the front of the guard prevent critters from climbing into the pump and damage the blades. Smaller openings on the suction side prevent critters from being sucked into the pump blades
Durability: PETG plastic construction makes the guard strong, 100% reef safe, and less brittle than the factory pump.
Function- This guard is a direct replacement for the factory Ecotech Marine power head lineup (it is NOT a cover) and they install in the same way as the stock guard. It also maintains a similar form so you don't have to worry about additional, bulky covers over your stock guard that could fall off!
But i didn't stop there...
Disappointment with the flow spread and inability to drive the pump at higher speed led me to design a unique "ENHANCED FLOW" anemone guard that disperses the flow - allowing the pump to be driven at a higher speed in the same size tank while creating a wider flow pattern across the tank!
Available "Flow" options:
Standard Flow: If you are looking for flow performance like the stock guard provides; purchase this option!
Enhanced Flow: If you want a wider more dispersed flow pattern: purchase this option!
