The only problem i see is their mounted Thur the glass not good for existing
tanks. maybe Thea will have one for that but don't see it if so.

Not sure but looks like the impeller is being driven and held in place with magnets, and not a hole thru the glass. I could be wrong. Their drawings leave a bit to be desired (intentionally I'm sure).

I'll reserve my opinion when I can see the final product, not sure I'd want my tank to have *warts* on both the inside and outside of the glass.

Makes you wonder if its a commercial rip off of the DIY propeller mod for the MaxiJets some of the guys have been experimenting with on RC, or if that mod was based on this beta product.

Basically i thank its like a tunzestream and you may be right kind of like a 2 part
set up with the magnet puling Thor the glass have to be one powerful magnet
if it is.
And with the IceCap name on it probable not cheap

My comps a little, well, crappy, and I can't see that pictures all the way on the website. What exactly is it? Like a wave maker or something?
