We waiting to see who would be out there first showing off their new WAVs. Check out this video from the guys at ReefPlus.
 
They are turned sideways giving them a lower profile look from the front and so you can kick the flow at an angle toward the front glass. The WAV are about a 20% narrower than they are tall, even narrower than an MP40 wet side.
 
They seem like they're extending out pretty far into the tank? Do you have a measurement from the glass to the tip of the pump head?
The WAV with the mount protrudes about 4" into the tank. It looks more exaggerated in this video because the pump is sideways and a lot thinner in that dimension.
 
I can't wait for mine, should be here on Friday and i'll see about posting a video/pictures as well. Trying to decide on getting the 3rd pump or not. :)
 
They can be tiled ~20+ degrees each direction and then rotated 360 of course. Yes the magnets are sealed and submersible.
 
It's just an illusion and also how they have been installed. I went and snapped a crappy photo to show you one on my tank. You can see the Vortech in front and the WAV in the back. Sorry for the bad phone photo!

Hey rev, can you do one from exactly the side? So we can see the Vortech and Wav.
