IceCap Gyre 2K Standalone Flow Pump Only
The IceCap Gyre 2K Standalone Pump Only block (SKU: IC-GY2KP) is an authentic, core
water-movement component distributed by CoralVue to provide high-volume linear circulation in
progressive marine reefs and large freshwater displays from 20 to 90 gallons. Standard
traditional powerheads throw a narrow, cone-shaped beam of water that creates harsh,
high-velocity hot spots directly in front of their nozzles while leaving the deep lower
corners of your tank stagnant. The Gyre 2K completely bypasses this design flaw by utilizing
dual transverse turbine cages to push a uniform, horizontal sheet of water straight across the
pool surface. When this linear stream strikes the opposite glass panel, it splits down toward
the substrate, rolling detritus across the sand bed and back up toward the intake for complete
water column turnover.
This "Pump Only" configuration is optimized strictly as a component piece and lacks a
standalone manual control driver or its own wall power adapter. It serves as an exact
factory-direct replacement for a worn-out wet block or acts as an affordable add-on expansion
pump for users utilizing a centralized smart controller framework. By coupling this standalone
unit with a HYDROS WaveEngine or WaveEngine LE module (via a direct terminal connection link),
you unlock complex cloud-based scheduling, random wave generation modes, staggered nocturnal
flow drop-offs, and complete feed-cycle synchronization through your home Wi-Fi network
without adding extra electrical cord tangles inside your filtration cabinet.
Key Features:
Clears Out Equipment Cabinet Clutter: Direct-drive engineering allows centralized
smart hubs to feed power and control signals down a single cord, removing separate inline
boxes.
True Total-Tank Gyre Current: Sweeps the entire length of your aquarium display
layout without blasting sensitive, flesh-expanding stony corals with focused friction
streams.
Asymmetric Reversible Current Flow: Features multi-angle directional cages and
color-coded interior rotor blades to allow full reverse-mode operations, mimicking real
ocean tidal drags.
Note: This package contains only the core wet pump block, magnetic base plates, and
standard spare rotors. Power supply cables, terminal hub link adapters, and physical
electronic drivers are sold under separate product categories.
