Throughout all of our tanks one of the most useful scheduled program modes we’ve really come to appreciate with controllable pumps is the ability to have very strong flow in the middle of the night when the polyps are closed. Until you’ve tried it you might not place much value on having alternating periods of high flow to really wash out the whole tank and make those polyps flutter, periods of low flow to allow LPS polyps to expand to their fullest, and oscillating waves that create a hypnotizing sway to the entire display.

The same could be said about full control of LED lights as well and while it may not be nearly as noticeable as having the light spectrum shift and adjust throughout the day, having scheduled periods of varying flow is both fun and beneficial. To be fair, most small and nano reef aquarium don’t really need full wireless and programming capabilities, but these two features really enable reefers to fine tune the physical environment of their smaller reef tanks. Once the Nero 3 pump is added to the myAI app, the drag and drop interface makes it incredibly easy to program the different water flow modes described above in order to benefit from a variability of water movement in the aquarium. The AI Nero 5 was one of the first controllable aquarium devices to use Bluetooth LE, making the initial setup and connection to the app nearly instantaneous with no need to go through a complicated setup process, something many controllable devices still struggle with. In this regard the myAI app used to control and program the AI Nero 3 has made great strides in being a very useful aspect of using this nano powerhead.

More than ever before, it’s important for companies to not only design and engineer the best hardware, but also consider and really develop the software so it’s as user friendly and practical as possible. For about the price of one decent coral colony the AI Nero 3 does everything that larger propeller pumps can do but its small size practically disappears inside the aquarium and even includes an inline hardware controller for quick access to pump speed and water flow modes.
