Thanking you all in advance,

I would pass on it, bad experiences two times.

First time, very loud
Second time, loud and I prefer the tunze streams

I had a thread a while ago in which I extensively reviewed mine.

Bottom line:

I like it. I really do.

BUT - I wouldn't recommend it for anything less than a 70-75G tank.

The noise was really bad initially, but once I got the belt tightened properly, the belt noise isn't bad at all. The only complaint I have about it at this point is the CLUNK noise it makes when the piston reverses direction, but I intend to contact Mike at Wave2k about this, as I'm sure it's not normal.

The flow and wave motion it creates is outstanding - I absolutely love it.

The one problem I did have with this is that some of the water kept splashing up over the rim of my tank - I had to fashion a "guard" to prevent it. But now that it's there, there's no more problems.
