Ok was down the LFS getting a replacement CO2 diffuser(what a pigging nightmare that was) and I spotted the Hydor things and thought that they seemed relatively cheap and splashed the cash and bought one.
I get it home and get it out of the box and was a little dismayed at how big the unit is as I am trying to keep the tank simple and not clogged up with gadgets.
Plop the unit in and switch it on to find it creates a veritable tornado inside my tank.
Plus side:-
Neg side:-
Have I gone to big and powerful in the effort to encourage better flow in the tank? The box says from 180l - 370l and is 3200l/h flow rate.
Not sure what to do now.

Plus side:-
- It throws up the organics for me to catch as they whizz past.
- The fish get a mighty work out
Neg side:-
- Its big
- It sways and pushes some the of the delicate stem plants quite a lot.
