AI Nero 3 Unboxing & Setup \\ BY FAR Our Favorite Wavemaker

Can't say enough good things about this incredible pump

[@andyproctor696]

Love the vid!

[@kutcha20]

dont forget to put that fish guard on

[@josephposada1830]

Love you guys! I will be starting that saltwater tank soon. I just got my first tank today. It's acrylic. 50 gallons

[@matmalette]

How is it going 7 months in?

[@Steve-514]

I got a Nero 3 on a RS170 and I love it. I just don't know if I'm using too much flow or not enough and if its placed in the right spot. I use all 3 modes at different intensities(65-30%) and it's placed on the side glass near the top with a tunze 6040(I don't like it) on the same side but at the back bottom.. tank is mostly softies and euphyllias... Ps You should have a section on your FB page for questions and giving advice like this

[@RobBoryckiGolf]

Love these pumps. Bought 3 from you. However the initial start of 100 percent is dangerous

[@jtm6671]

Thanks ! I’m waiting for mine , and I didn’t know they start at 100 % !

[@jimharkins3695]

I see you attached the outside magnet within the first stage filter area of the all-in-one tank. Is the magnet totally enclosed so that it can be placed in the water and be reef-safe? I haven't been able to confirm that it is...... Please let me know. Thx.

[@jkturtle6384]

Do you think the Nero 3 is too much for a 5 gallon? Or will it blow around the sand even on the lowest setting?

[@richardgaston1066]

I noticed that you put the outside magnet in the back sump. Is there any problem with the magnet being submerged in the water?

[@tumasgts]

How would you compare the Nero5 with the Mp-40? which is the best for a 425 Reefer?

[@sodalines]

why is it 200 bones in Canada, everywhere else its like 130 to 150. amazon has it for 140 the other day.

[@jamescarter485]

I have had 2 and both stopped working on me within 6 hours of having. Would y’all recommend the Nero 5 or is it just as bad?

[@danlez7676]

I bought a used Nero 3. When I plug it in. the blue LED is flashing. I tried as suggested by AI, to hold the control button and keep holding it and apply power. the LED should change to red flashing. The blue LED just keeps flashing no matter how long I hold it down. The pump is working but at a very low pulsing speed, The AI app doesn't see it. Any ideas what might be wrong?

[@Sif_theGreatGreyWolf]

Just curious, but can you put the dry side in water? It looks like you are. I set mine up last night and I put the dryside in water, it's working and everything. But idk

[@Sif_theGreatGreyWolf]

???

[@gregdouglas4363]

🐌 😳🙃👍

[@DX13579]

only issue iv ran into so far was the nero 3 just stopped connecting to the app for what ever reason, but long story short i just had to update my phone (pixel 5), dont know if this has happened to anyone else yet.

[@kygu]

I had the same issue but found if I turn on my Bluetooth and GPS it works every time (galaxy s20)

[@kelsroom2]

is it true... it's noisy compare to to jebao slw10/20... need honest review before i purchase it

[@TheJohnny220]

Cool but I think I have to out do you and get a mp10 on my jbj

[@hardinghopper344]

I wanna work here

[@beachsidereefer6685]

Is the back magnet safe to be in the water?

[@gordo864]

Was thinking the same thing.

[@beachsidereefer6685]

@@gordo864 I ask WWC and BRS. Both said that they are. I currently put a Neru 3 in my AIO chamber 2 weeks ago. I will keep everyone updated.

[@Kenny_Edmonton]

I had the magnets in my AIO waterbox 50.3 and they are perfectly fine

[@bmw3842]

What about the Nero 5 is that enough for a 55 gph

[@Kenny_Edmonton]

I have two Nero 5’s running in my waterbox 50 gallon. Great pumps

[@marcuswong1797]

Only reason not to buy AI Nero pump is that it has no battery back up support. Nowadays pretty much every pump has battery back up support. Not sure why AI haven't come out with their own battery back up by now?

[@Kenny_Edmonton]

Would be nice if they did come out with support for that, I have two Nero 5’s and I’m new to the hobby

[@jeand5910]

worst pump to have if you ever use the switches on powerbars to turn off all pumps. Had to factory reset it 6 times in 2 months of usage with 0 support from AI. Got rid of mine last week finally for store credit at my LFS. 0 on 10 so far. A 60$ 6 year old tunze is 20 times more reliable than a new nero 3

[@stephenshores5602]

I would hate this wave maker iam not good with electronics it would confuse me I dont have a I pad why not just use a easy power head love your store iam in Tennessee thanks

[@scubasteve9032]

Maybe you should learn, it is 2022 . Do you have a smart phone?

[@bryansanchez-kx5sn]

should have used 2 mp10 lolz
