10 Xs turnover rate per gallon of water is considered by most to be minimal.
29G @ 10 Xs = 290GPH (gallons per hour)

in a 29G, i would use two small MJs in opposite corners.
goto: www.marinedepot.com and "click" powerheads for MJ models and GPH.

Current Tank Info: SPS dominated barebottom display with BB sump since 2005, most consistant parameters in 19+ years of reefkeeping.

If anything, I add would add another koralia. Just have to watch anemones around powerheads.
