ASF NewJet Wave — 530 GPH Compact Propeller Powerhead

Overview

The ASF NewJet Wave 530 GPH is a compact, quiet wavemaker that creates broad, natural water movement for reef and freshwater aquariums. Its propeller-style impeller delivers a wide flow pattern that keeps detritus suspended, improves gas exchange, and promotes healthy coral and plant growth.
