In my case, the rapid cycling produced waves of about 1.5 inches (38mm) in height. After all, smaller much less expensive propeller pumps can produce higher flow rates while using less power. Judging the Turbelle pump strictly on its flow rate and power consumption would lead an aquarist to conclude its performance is less than impressive.

So last night like I said I thought I was just seeing things with the Skimmer and water seemed cleaner, so I did a little searching and I found this and was shocked when I readed the review and Conclusions.
When I checked on Tank today SPS polyps extended and the few Zoa's that I have standing tall and opened wide and Glowing, I know it sounds strange but everything seems to be more colorful. All the fish then started to emerge and seemed to really enjoy this new up and down and forward and back thing that was going on. I sat back and said to myself what is going on, this all took place quickly it was maybe 30 min to 45 min and then noticed, the water looks cleaner I must be seeing things, looked into the sump and noticed skimmer was much more active and foaming away. My Naso went back and forth a few times and then did something he has never done, he took position in between 2 branches of a large Tongo piece about 3/4's from bottom about 3 inches from surface and I proceeded to watch his color darken up and then he open his mouth and then he extend his Fin on his back straight up and he stayed like that for a few minutes, he did a small run around and straight back and did it all over again and has not stopped since. My fish were actually confused at first, what is this up and down and forwards and back movement, I believe my Yellow belly Hippo started to turn green and hid behind a rock. I installed and set the Frequency of the wave and was impressed with the back and forth movement that the LPS was getting, Bubble started to inflate and tentacles started to extend from it, pom pom tentacles extend to further then I seen before. Well I was not ready for what was awaiting me in the next few hours. I have not run it for about 3 years and even when first got it I only ran it for a day or 2 as I was so intrigued by the all New Gyre 150 and one was on its way and installed and Wavebox cleaned and shelved. So yesterday I noticed the Gyre 150 looks like it needs a good cleaning and not wanting to do it right away, I went digging and pulled out the Wavebox.
