the only things i have seen with the wave2k is it seems to be alittle loud, my buddy said he would go thru alot of belts for the unit. and the pulleys tend to come loose and you have to re tighten them. but when i seen his tank it makes a good wave motion. just alittle noisy for my taste

I had one a couple years ago. It was a little too noisy for my setup so I sold it. The guy that purchased it from me set it up and got on the phone with the owner of the company and did some adjusting and told me they got it almost silent. The mechanism has to be adjusted perfectly for it to work properly.

I considered one, but what I read about it being loud scared me.
