Looking for a solution to get a wavebox in my 310 gallon. The new Tunze is too small and I can't seem to find the 6214 anywhere. Wondering if anyone makes a box I can drop a pump in?
Is there an alternative to the Tunze wavebox?

I'm trying to get that gentle sway that you seem to only get with a wavebox

I feel ya on the wavebox. I have an old one 6215? Maybe. Used it on my 125 gallon reef when it was up about 10 years ago. Still works, and could tune it to create at least a 1.5 inch standing wave. If tuned enough, I could get water to splash out of the tank. Great product, just hard to hide.

in my experience there is no substitute fro a Tunze Wavebox. I have tried Scotch MP10, MP40 and various other pumps none of which produce a wave remotely similar to the Tunze.
have you considered TWO wave boxes working in parallel or Inverse.
last year i bought a new 6214 and found it less effective than its predecessor which i believe is due to the change in dimensions of the wavebox.
I now have 2 6208 placed next to each other working in Parallel and producing a nice wave although it still needs some finetuning

Have you looked into the Tunze Stream 3? That is a serious wave pump designed for the bigger tanks.
