The Tunze ORCA MK2 0501.000 is a high-quality oscillating unit for circulation pumps, developed through a collaboration between Tunze and the German start-up ReefHub. What began as an innovative idea is now being brought into series production: with sophisticated technology, high-quality materials, and our decades of experience in marine aquariums. Tunze ORCA MK2 allows the circulation pump to be moved dynamically in the aquarium: precise and software-controlled by the extremely user-friendly Reef Assistant App. This allows changing flow conditions to be created that mimic the natural movement of the sea. In combination with the Reef Assistant app, not only the direction but also the flow strength can be precisely controlled depending on the angle of rotation. The result: less pumping, more movement, and maximum control over the flow.
The ORCA MK2 is controlled through the Tunze Reef Assistant app, giving you a high level of control over how the powerhead moves throughout the day. From the app, you can adjust rotation direction, set the sweep angle, and even vary the pump’s flow rate based on where it is pointing to better match your tank’s dimensions, aquascape, and livestock needs. For example, you might choose to place the ORCA on the back of your aquarium and have the pump run at a slower speed when it's facing the front of the tank to avoid disturbing the sandbed, then increase flow when the pump is aimed toward the sides to help reach the end of the aquarium. You can also use this feature to slow the pump speed down when it's pointing towards more delicate corals that would be damaged by intense flow.
The ORCA MK2 uses a carbon fiber tube for finely adjustable length and stable positioning. The tube can be adjusted in small increments without tools, making it easy to set the correct height for your system. The included mount is designed for glass thickness up to 22 mm (0.87") and works with rimless aquariums as well as tanks with a eurobrace. The mounting approach is similar to the Osmolator 3 style tubing mount. While the ORCA isn't designed to be used submerged, the electronics and control system are fully encapsulated in PU resin, and the seals are designed to resist water intrusion. The ORCA MK2 oscillating unit is protected against splashes and temporary submersion, giving you peace of mind if it happens to go for an unexpected swim.
This includes only the ORCA Oscillating Powerhead Mount, a separate pump is required. This mount is compatible with the Tunze Turbelle Nanostream 6075.005 HUB Edition and the Tunze Turbelle Stream 6105 Eco Pump HUB EDITION
