Axis pumps deliver full control, wireless smart device programming, quiet DC motor operation, and precise output calibration — features once reserved for much larger, more expensive units. Built for reliable aquarium circulation and return pump duties, these centrifugal pumps are engineered to suit a wide range of tank setups while minimizing noise and power draw.

  • Coordinate Feed/Maintenance Modes — Control all compatible pumps from a single unit to simplify maintenance and feeding.
  • Prevent back-siphon — With calibration engaged, the pump can continue running without producing flow to prevent siphoning and reduce the risk of air bubbles when normal operation resumes.

With Axis you get exactly what you need. All AI devices include smart control standard — use the myAI® or Mobius app on iOS or Android to set up and program your pump wirelessly. Add Neptune Fusion control via Apex when connected with the Apex and MXM module for advanced automation and integration.

Included Pump Modes

Schedule: Create custom programs with changing flow over time.
Feed: Temporarily reduces flow to prevent food from being cycled into the overflow.
Calibrate: Tune the pump to your aquarium by setting max, min, and neutral flow levels.

Dimensions

Compact, model-dependent footprints to fit a variety of installations and cabinet spaces.
