Need Advice for a 7.5G Cube
I have a few questions on which equipment to buy for my 7.5g cube.
1. Which powerhead should I buy a Rio 50 (69gph) or a Hydor Koralia (240gph) 2. Would I need to buy one or two powerheads? 3. What brand hang on filter should I buy? Sorry for the noob questions. Any advice would be great. |

1) I'd consider doing 2 Rio heads or just 1 Koralia (which may be too much in that small a tank).
2) see above 3) Get a HOB filter that is easy to change filters and easy to remove from the tank and clean. I have used a couple different ones on my 10 &20g QT's and they all worked pretty well.

if you're keeping corals in this tank, the koralia nano is your best bet & you only need 1. if you're keeping seahorses, I know nothing about them.
