William Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I need a powerhead for my Lifeguard Aquatics 7.4 gallon peninsula. I was wondering what options people are using for tanks this size. The key things I want are: Controllable low profile low minimum water flow (most pumps minimums are still too powerful) I’m trying to find something under $100 1 Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Jebap SW2,from what I have seen its SUPER small for what it is. Maybe the same size as a Aquamai I think. Quote Link to comment

Also one for SW2.... I have 3 hidden in a 14gal tank.... totally adjustable and cheap! Quote Link to comment
RedCrow Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 In a tank under 10 gallons I’d just upgrade your return pump and nozzles, and skip the power head altogether Quote Link to comment
Picogoby Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 SW2...... pretty tiny or do I have giant hands?? 🤔 2 Quote Link to comment

I guess I could drill them out ... 1 Quote Link to comment
jbb Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 These look promising , but they look to be single position like the vortechs 1 Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Aqamai kps. Awesome wavemaker, great company customer service. I used the sw2. I could only use 1 setting very low or else it was too strong. Both of mine didn't last very long. They stopped working properly after 3 mnths...thank God for store warranties. 1 Quote Link to comment

I have been looking at these but I am hoping not to spend 120. I have a vortech MP10 I can use but I want the back wall clean and can’t mount it against the divider. Quote Link to comment
