    Im finally at a point that I can spend some money, and upgrade my powerheads. The tanks is 125 bow and I would really like powerheads that arent that bulky

    Currently there are 2 Koralias in there but they are kind of big and bulky

    So im looking to replace them ... how many should I get, and are there any that give good flow and arent that big.

    Im also not too sure how much flow I should have

    maybe a seio in its box form.

    a tunze perhaps in its rock mold, or some how fit another power head in a rock mold.

    The new Koralia Evolutions series are about half the size of the old K series and much more power efficient at less than half the wattage. Plus they are controllable.
