    Get 2x Hydor Korlia Nanos :)

    I've heard good things about the powersweeps, but require quite a bit of maintence. They are said to jam often.

    Just ordered the Hydor Koralia Nano. We have them in all of the other tanks, so why deviate...

    I had a powersweep when they first came out. Mine hesatated badly like it was jamming up strait out of the box. Might have been an issue they have fixed since then. That was 4 or 5 yrs ago.

    i bought a zoo med the other day, im kinda surprized how nice it was. great suction cups, sticks good. not noisy. great for surface agitation. the only thing ive noticed is its a lil under powered, so i would get one larger than you think you need.
    i jus

    Thank you, everyone. I decided to go with the Hydor Koralia Nano, since I have all Hydor Koralia powerheads in our other tanks. 8)

    Good Choice
    The Zoo Med, while it works would require constant cleaning to keep it going back and forth :)
