Ideally suited for aquariums smaller than 70 gallons, the MP20
produces unmatched broad yet gentle flow while placing the motor
outside the tank—preserving the beauty of your aquarium and enhancing
the health of your tank’s ecosystem.
With all the electrical components outside
the aquarium and a variety of easy-to-program modes, the VorTech is the
safest, most versatile pump on the market. And, if your tank needs to
grow, the MP20 can be upgraded to the MP40w—providing you wireless communication between your pumps and even more functionality and flow.
Operational Modes

Short Pulse Mode – Allows for wave pulse timings between 0.3 and two seconds, enabling the creation of FAST alternating flow throughout the tank.
Long Pulse Mode – Allows for wave pulse timings of
