power heads

[emmett0122]

no its because i put the power head on the other side of the tank pointing down into the lr. where everything was fall before and as far as the end of my pipe the way it is increases the velocity cuz it restricts the flow.

Sorry, i edited. Your right, dont you wanna slow it down?

 

[emmett0122]

no its all good it just cleaned out the rocks when i turned on the new powerhead

Good to go!

i really good flow all around and before i plugged it in my protein skimmer wasnt doing much and after it was foaming at the mouth lol

Thats what you want! Keep an eye on your protein skimmer, it will tell all the tall tales of whats happening in your tank.

Im sorry you are talking about? Its all wavemakers. I thought this was about powerheads. Where do you get a 6000gph powerhead? So not 750 or 1050. So i want 600 times per hour? I must have this wrong

You get powerheads MUCH bigger than 6000GPH from Tunze....
