Default New powerheads, no more duct tape

I got the Hydor Koralia #4 and#3 today. What a difference they make. Everything looks better and the fish enjoy the flow. Best of all, magnets! I also got the ph monitor but I thought I had a battery for it so now I have to wait to try it out. My little girl is sick and that means I cannot move with out her. That's ok, I can go to the store anytime. Now is the time for her. We are watching the tank together and keeping her mind off her tonsils.

Great choice on your powerheads there! As long as you don't plan on having a wavemaker, you'll be set for many years.

I just picked up two #4s over the holidays (discounted ) and they are great.

Hope your daughter feels better soon.

They look cool but have read both pros and cons with people recommending them and others not.

I wanted the wave2k but was worried about the size and the placement of my lr. I am impressed with these new powerheads. They have made a difference in my tank in just under 24hrs.
