    Hello,
    Do I need a circulation pump? It seems the stock pump in the Biocube 14 does not have much circulation. Do I need a circulation pump? They make them for nano tanks.

    Yes Ma'am you do.
    Those little return pumps aren't much in the bio-cubes.

    Are the Koralia Nanos good? I think they come in 180 and 300?

    The Koralia Nanos are very good.
    They come in the 240 and the 425. I'd probably go with two of the 240's since I think the 425 is a little stout for a 14 gallon tank.
