Collection: Ecotech Marine

Both EcoTech Marine flow lines are gathered here. VorTech QD powerheads mount through the display glass with the motor kept dry outside the tank, in MP10, MP40 and MP60 sizes. Vectra DC pumps handle return and utility duty in S2, M2 and L2. Supporting parts run alongside: complete wet sides, dry side assemblies, replacement drivers and power supplies, service foam, barb and screen kits, a battery backup booster, wall mounts and the EcoSmart Mobius RF module. Parts are model and generation specific.

Two lines, two roles

A VorTech is a powerhead. It clamps to the display glass, keeps its motor on the dry side, and moves water within the tank itself. A Vectra is a pump — it lives in or next to the sump and pushes water back to the display or through connected equipment. Many reef systems run both, and the two lines share controller and accessory infrastructure, which is why they sit in one collection.

Service and upgrade parts

  • Wet side and dry side assemblies replace half a VorTech instead of the entire unit.
  • Drivers and power supplies must match both model and QD generation.
  • Foam inserts are routine service items on VorTech wet sides.
  • Barb and screen kits adapt Vectra S2 and M2 to hose.
  • The Mobius RF module brings app control to compatible earlier hardware.

Before ordering a part

EcoTech has released multiple hardware generations and QD-era components differ from what came before, despite looking similar. Read the model badge on the pump or driver first. On any system where a stalled return or powerhead would cause real trouble, a battery backup booster is a sensible addition rather than an afterthought.

J&L Aquatics was formed in December 1997

Our business was started from our love of the aquarium hobby. We at J&L Aquatics felt that the Canadian aquarist should have the option to purchase top quality supplies, equipment and livestock other than the generally over priced local retail stores.
