I am looking for a compact budget power head for my mid size tank. 24 x 16 x 16 inches. Though my Fluval 207 has a good flow rate to provide enough surface agitation, so I am not sure if need a power but there are few dead zones
 
How do you know you have dead spots? What issues are you having a result of them? I fear this is your impatience kicking in again and that you're going to throw gear at your problem. I hope I'm wrong.
 
The spot behind the lily pipes, I don’t see any movement. I feel that the flow rate of my filter is good. But in one of my old threads people recommended me to use power head
 
Think most tanks will have some dead spots, never been a problem for us ; the fish often like to go into them to rest.

Plenty of little powerhead/pumps around, but if you do not have one, then a small surface skimmer should add that extra movement and keep the surface clear.
eg EHEIM skim350
 
Well, I don't think spamming the forum with 50++ threads in a few weeks is the way to get people to help you.
You need to learn to be be patient and wait for people to reply.

Think the Moderators will deal with such matters if they feel anyone is abusing the forum in any way.

Absolutely. They are of course free to delete my post too if they so wish.

I don't think I did anything wrong in stating my opinion on this, and I don't think having one member spamming the forum like this is healthy for the forum.

It's not so much spamming - clearly all the questions were relevant and important to help with his set up.

Flooding might be a better word. If he kept going at the same pace, no other threads would be visible without going back pages and pages. I accept that I might be the only one having a problem with it, and this will be my final comment on the matter.
