Powerhead for a 20gal

Hey everyone, I would like to know what PH i should put in a 20 gal tank.

I started up my girlfriends 20 gal not to long ago. I have a fluval 402 hooked up on it but i wanted to have more water movement so i added a aqua-clear 402 that i was'nt using for my tank. BAD IDEA >. Its to strong it kicked up the sand like crazy. Maybe when theres a little more LR in the tank cause right now theres only about 10lbs. So i think that when we add more LR it shouldn't be as bad. But i still think its to strong.

So what brand and how many gph should i go for.

Thanks.

Marc.

 

hmm maybe a rio 600 i like the rio alot there is a # for all tanks

 

I would go with 2 rio 50's....or somthin along the lines of 50-100 gph.

 

Thanks guys... but didnt i read on this site that rio's were crap?

Some rios are just loud, others crap out.
Maxijet 1200s are nice. And not as loud.

 

Thanks Matt i will check out Maxijets... but the 1200 is even more powerfull that the aquaclear i have in there so it to will kick up the sand... ill try to check out the 400.

Thanks

Marc.

 

hmm now that i think of it...rios r crap lol mine lost alot of power and somtimes can be very loud...lol has anyone heard about the new rio hyperflows and r they just as bad?

 

maxijet makes pumps of lower power like the MJ 600, 900's. Also check out Via Aqua pumps. Or use the smaller hagen (aquaclear) pumps. Check online at petsolutions.com, Dr's foster and smith's or thatfishplace.com.

 

Thanks guys
