AI Orbit 2 Cross-Flow Pump AI Orbit 2 Cross-Flow Pump is a controllable aquarium gyre-style pump designed to create wide cross-flow circulation that moves water across the length of the aquarium for more natural reef-style current. AI Orbit 2 Cross-Flow Pump for Tidal Reef Movement The Orbit 2 creates a different type of flow than a standard directional powerhead. Instead of pushing a compact stream from one point, it produces a cross-flow pattern that helps move water around the aquarium, lift detritus from the bottom, and create tidal-style circulation across rockwork and coral zones. Orbit 2 Reversible Pump Control Features Cross-flow pump design helps create broad tidal-style circulation. Recommended for aquariums from approximately 20 to 88+ gallons. Reversible flow allows forward and reverse pump operation for more flexible current patterns. Flow modes include Constant, Pulse, Random, and Reverse. Smart control through the myAI app, Mobius app, or Apex Fusion with a compatible MXM module. Ultra-quiet energy-efficient DC motor supports everyday aquarium circulation. Magnetic mounting system allows easy placement and service access. Pairs well with Nero powerheads when a mix of cross-flow and chaotic directional flow is desired. AI Orbit 2 Pump Specifications Product type: controllable cross-flow aquarium pump Recommended aquarium size: 20-88+ gallons Dimensions: 8.78 in. W x 1.5 in. D x 2.83 in. H Maximum glass thickness: 0.59 in. / 15 mm Power consumption: variable, 25W maximum Input: 100-240VAC, 50-60Hz, 2A Driver: integrated pump driver Control options: myAI, Mobius, and Apex Fusion with MXM module Orbit 2 Cross-Flow Placement Notes Mount the Orbit 2 where the pump can move water along the length or width of the aquarium without immediately blasting into a rock wall. Use reverse and pulse-style programming to change the current direction and help reduce settled detritus. In tanks with sand, start with lower output and increase gradually to avoid blowing substrate around. AI Orbit 2 Setup Directions Select a placement that allows the cross-flow pattern to travel across the aquarium. Confirm the aquarium glass thickness is within the magnet rating. Install the pump and mounting magnet carefully on clean glass or acrylic. Connect the power adapter and configure control through the preferred app or compatible controller setup. Start with reduced flow and test Constant, Pulse, Random, or Reverse modes to find the best pattern. Observe coral movement, detritus lift, fish behaviour, and sand stability before increasing output. Clean the pump on a regular maintenance schedule to keep flow strong and quiet.
