Smart Bluetooth Reef Powerhead
Bring powerful, natural water movement to your reef aquarium with the AquaIllumination Nero 3 Wave Pump. Designed for nano and medium-sized marine aquariums, the Nero 3 delivers up to 2,000 GPH of wide, gentle flow in an incredibly compact package. Its broad output minimizes harsh hotspots while creating the randomized currents that corals and reef inhabitants naturally experience on the reef.
Control every aspect of your flow directly from your smartphone using the myAI® or Mobius® app. Create custom schedules, random reef currents, pulse waves, feeding modes, and more—all without the need for an external controller. For advanced users, the Nero 3 can also integrate into compatible aquarium controller ecosystems.
The included Fish Guard provides additional protection for smaller fish, anemones, and other delicate livestock, making the Nero 3 an excellent choice for mixed reefs, nano reefs, and all-in-one aquarium systems.
Whether you're upgrading your current circulation or starting a brand-new reef, the Nero 3 delivers premium performance, whisper-quiet operation, and the reliability hobbyists have come to expect from AquaIllumination.
