Sea Swirls

First off let me say that I HATE powerheads. That being said for my closed loop I dont truly have enough return lines. I have been seriously contemplating useing two 3/4" sea swirls as two extra returns. Does any one have any opinions or use them? Thanks for any info.

Re: Sea Swirls

I have really nothing good or bad to say about them.Those and the Wavysea seems like nifty return lines,although expensive for something that uses water pressure to make it turn side to side.

Re: Sea Swirls

Sea swirls have electic motors for the rotation they dont waste any flow for it.
