NICE WORK, thank you for sharing!

I was wondering if you keep your wavemaker on 24/7 or have it on occassionally?

You talked about timers not being fast enough to control the pump; some take a few seconds.

My question is; in your examples of use it looked to be a very fast wave/current at a very fast rate of repetition. can you slow down the rate to create more of a slow surge? could this be done with slower timers?
Or does the configuration of the box/pump dictate the rate of waves?

I also noticed at your overflow box to the sump, water surging in at different rates in conjunction to the "wave". Is there any concern here to look out for?
