20 gallon long w/ 950 gph powerhead??
Hi everyone, I am setting up my first 20 gallon long and was given a brand new 950 gph aqueon powerhead. too much flow? thoughts/opinions. It will be that powerhead with a AC50 HOB filter.

Your power head is too strong. Maybe half is enough

What are you planning on keeping? do you have or will have sand? IMO is not too much flow, I have used 1250gph powerheads in a 20g long before.
