Return Pump Modes
Constant Speed
Runs the pump continuously at the selected flow rate, making it ideal for normal return pump operation.
Feed Mode
Temporarily reduces or pauses flow, helping prevent food from immediately being pulled into the overflow or filtration system.
Speed Lock
Locks the selected pump speed to help prevent accidental changes to the flow setting.
Closed Loop Modes
When used in a closed-loop system, the Vectra can create more dynamic circulation patterns.
Lagoonal Random
Produces slower, gentler variations in flow to simulate calmer lagoon environments.
Reef Crest Random
Creates stronger, more frequent changes in pump speed to simulate higher-energy reef conditions.
Gyre Mode
Alternates flow levels at selected intervals to create broader, circulating water movement through the aquarium.
