IceCap 2K Gyre Flow Pump (Pump Only)
The IceCap 2K Gyre Flow Pump is a crossflow circulation pump rated for aquariums from 20 to 90+ gallons, with a maximum output of 2,000 GPH and a minimum of 739 GPH. It uses licensed gyre technology from Maxspect, the creators of the original gyre pump, to generate a wide linear flow pattern across the length of the tank. Unlike propeller-style pumps that push a focused stream in one direction, the 2K moves water horizontally from one end of the tank to the other. That flow bounces off the opposite wall and returns, completing a full circulation loop with no dead spots.
This listing is for the pump and mounting base only. It is designed for hobbyists who already own or plan to use the HYDROS WaveEngine, which powers and controls the pump directly through its Direct Drive ports. With the appropriate IceCap Gyre WaveEngine adapter (sold separately), the 2K connects to the WaveEngine without a separate power brick or external controller. For hobbyists running multiple pumps, this means fewer cables and power supplies in the stand.
Key Features:
- Crossflow gyre technology moves water linearly from one end of the tank to the other
- 2,000 GPH maximum flow, 739 GPH minimum, adjustable across that range
- 8-25W power draw depending on flow setting
- Mounts vertically or horizontally; can be positioned close to the water surface
- Waterproof magnet mounts; safe for glass and acrylic up to 1/2" thick
- Twin-directional flow cages allow flow direction to be adjusted
- Includes two sets of propellers (orange and black)
- HYDROS WaveEngine Direct Drive compatible via IceCap Gyre adapter (sold separately)
- Also compatible with the IceCap Gyre Dual Pump WiFi Controller
- 6ft cable length
Ideal For:
- Reef tanks 20-90+ gallons where a single pump needs to cover full-tank circulation
- Hobbyists already running a HYDROS WaveEngine who want to add a pump without a second controller
- Tanks where propeller-style pumps have left dead spots in flow coverage
- Multi-pump builds where consolidating controllers and power supplies is a priority
- Mixed reef or SPS-dominated tanks that benefit from consistent, non-turbulent linear flow
Pro Tips:
- You need the adapter to connect to the WaveEngine. This pump does not plug directly into the HYDROS WaveEngine without the IceCap Gyre WaveEngine Pump Adapter, sold separately. Confirm you have the adapter before purchase if WaveEngine integration is your plan.
- Mount position affects flow pattern. The 2K can be mounted horizontally or vertically, and closer to the surface or lower in the tank. A horizontal mount near the surface produces the most pronounced gyre pattern for most standard reef tank dimensions. Experiment with positioning before committing to a permanent mount.
- Two propeller sets give you options. The included orange and black propeller sets are not cosmetic variants. They can produce slightly different flow characteristics depending on setup. Test both to find which works better for your tank's livestock and layout.
