Itty Bitty Powerheads
Do they make tiny powerheads?

What size tank?
I have an MP10 in my 10g nano.  Advantage is the wet side is low profile so it works well in smaller tanks.

I'm wanting to add some circulation to the refugium portion of my sump, but just enough to keep things churned. It's a small space, so I was wishing that someone made tiny, low-flow powerheads for these applications.
I was also thinking that I could put a smaller Maxi-jet in the return portion and funnel a hose over there maybe? Any thoughts?

Hey! I think that both the Tunze and Hydors would work.
Thank you!

I just put a Tunze 6020 in operation a few weeks back. I was impressed with the amount of flow and "pointability" in the little thing. I'd definitely recommend it over the Hydors.

How small you need? Tunze has smaller than the 6020's. Check out tunze 5024.040 they are 1.7"x1.5"x1.6"
