Hi,
First off just wanted to say thanks for all the invaluable info on this forum, its great
I'm ordering some bits for my new tank I have on order with TGM, I aim to start a journal soon because I have found the ones on here brilliant!
Its a 276 litre tank and I'm trying to figue out what would give me the best flow, I have an eheim 2080 filter for the tank which is rated at 1700 l/h (which will be connected to a lily pipe) but once the filter media is added and the delivery head height is taken into account I expect I will be getting closer to 1000 l/h.
What would you guys recommend for extra circulation, I like the look of the Koralia evo pumps but I'm not sure what sort of flow they produce and whether its best to go for one large powerhead or a couple of smaller ones?
I have also been toying with the idea of having an external powerhead such as the eheim compact 5000 connected to a glass inlet and lily pipe to keep as much clutter out of the tank as possible.
What do you think?
Regards
Matt
