snostorm Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 I just bought a maxijet 400 for my 16g aga bow front tank. I replaced my rio 800 because I felt it was making my tank too turbulent. This for now is a FOWLR tank and I was wondering where I should direct the out flow from the power head. Should I point it at the surface or at my rock? 16g aga bow penguin 170 w/biowheel sea clone 100 skimmer maxijet 400 PH corallife 96w PCw 50/50 ebo 100w heater 10lbs LR 3.5 inch argonite sand bed 2 small false percs Link to comment
milhouse74 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Surface will help with gas exchange, thats where I point mine in both my tanks, seems to work well for me. Link to comment
TroyT Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Why not buy two smaller sized powerheads and have one on the rock and the other on the surface? That way you can reduce the algae on the rocks and help with gas exchange. Have fun. Link to comment
