Flow Uncompromised

VorTech pumps are designed by aquarists to be the gold standard for providing flow in marine aquariums. When it comes to broad yet gentle flow, the VorTech design is unmatched.

– Create massive water movement
– No coral damaging “hot spots”
– Natural Gyre
– Tank-wide flow patterns
– Precise control of water movement

Magnetic Couple

At the heart of the VorTech’s success is its unique, patented, magnetically coupled design.  No distractions from the beauty of the tank and its inhabitants.

– No wires in the aquarium
– No unwanted heat added to the water column
– No risk of electrical discharge harming people or marine life

Vortech Modes
LAGOON MODE
Lagoon mode simulates a low-energy lagoon environment. The speed of the pump is changed slowly to recreate the gentle currents of a lagoon.
REEF CREST MODE
Reef Crest Random mode simulates a high-energy reef environment. The pump will change speed frequently and drastically to simulate crashing waves and surging tide. This is a favorite of SPS coral.
GYRE MODE
Gyre mode creates a flow pattern consisting of uniform clockwise and *counterclockwise flow levels pulsing at a selected interval between two seconds and two hours.
SHORT PULSE MODE
Short Pulse mode creates a flow pattern consisting of uniform high and low levels pulsing at a selected interval between 0.2 seconds and 2 seconds.
TIDAL SWELL MODE
TSM creates a harmonic balance reminiscent of the changing flow conditions found in nature. Over the course of several hours, the flow pattern will go from very chaotic to calm.
NUTRIENT TRANSPORT MODE
Nutrient Transport mode (NTM) creates circulation in a two-phase program. The first phase uses wave motion to stir up detritus.
