    Hey all starting a new 90 gallon reef tank and I was thinking about buy the garf.org recommended

    2-4 seio 820 1640min power heads

    Do you guys think that would be a good option?


    Thanks in advance!

    Tunze have good powerheads that can be controlled if you want.

    its not bad but not a good deal for you.
    i have a 90 gallon i have a maxi-jet 1200(with sureflow upgrade) and a seio 1500. in my opinion almost all powerheads are over priced(even if tunze are nice). if you want two power heads that won't let you down buy maxi jets and sure flow upgrades.

    i wouldnt recommend getting two 1200 though because there just too powerful(mines like a tsunami 2000 gph is a lot). i would reccommend two maxi jet 900s with the upgrades. you want to know the best thing about this a maxijet and sureflow kit is only 30 dollars all together. IF YOU WANT SOME BANG FOR YOUR BUCK USE THE MAXIJET WITH THE SUREFLOW KIT .(its bold so you must know its good advice).
