What power head to get?

[MikeG747]

Hi,
I am planning on getting a circulation power head to help with co2 circulation around a 300l 4 foot long tank.
I want one that doesn't have a wire trailing into the aquarium if possible but I don't know where to start. Does anyone have any good suggestions?

Thanks
Mike

There are some that use magnets and the wire is outside the tank. Can't remember off top of my head the brand. But they cost about £200 each.

I use Koralia Nano's and Newave. Both are excellent. If I had to choose a preference. The Newave ones are better.

Vortech mp range is what your after but they are £££££
I'm also insure how directional they are as designed for reef tanks. They have a whole bunch of settings though.
I have a tunze 60... Something. Its Variable speed yet even on the lowest setting is s bit high strong for my 4ft.
Anyway, some food for thought....

I have a cheap one from APS. Works, slightly noisy compared to some of the expensive brands I've seen and larger than them for the flow, but oh so cheap.

Hi all,
If you don't mind too much about aesthetics the Maxi-jet powerheads last for ever, and come in a range of sizes.
