need new power head for corner tank

RufRidn · 01/15/2009, 01:35 AM

I have a 100g corner tank with what seems to be not enough flow. I want a recommendation on what to upgrade to. Currently the tank has 2 seio 820 and a Koralia 2. I have a seio on each side and the koralia is on the opposite side of the return. I was wondering if I should upgrade to 2 tunze 6055 or get one vortech mp40w on the wall opposite of the return. Each wall is 36".

well after the last thread ive been involved with im almost frightened to reply

however your rock work and positioning is a factor in a corner, most of us corner guys have found a tunze 6025 at the rear corner pointing towards the front glass breaking the water surface and 2 good powerheads on the sides is satisfactory
