    Nice how many GPH you think you'll be turning over with the new setup? I push around about 220GPH in my tiny 10g but to most that's almost too much movement.

    Sweet lil tank :) I ran an 8g bio-cube for 2 years. I too had a Hydor Flo and at first it was great. Loved the circulation it provided in my lil tank. However :( after about 3 months it stopped working properly. Kept getting stuck in place. No matter how clean I kept it and I kept it clean. It also lost the ability to stay attached to the output hole and I was always finding it laying on top of a coral or two. The rubber part that goes into the output hole become brittle if you clean it with vinegar. I suggest you use Hydor Magi-Klean. Great product!
    I'm not trying to be the barer of bad news here. Especially now that you have already received it. You may want to keep your eye open for another alternative. Personally I'm going to be giving the Hydor Smart Wave wave maker a try on my 26g :)
