so Im looking to add some powerheads or just one into my 72x18x24 tank, what size of powerhead is needed to blow crap from one end to the other ?? would a pair of 1500 hydor koralia's be too much one on each end one near the front one near the back to get a circular motion going to stir up crap so it goes into the filter ? or what ya think ?

125-150gal? Way to much if so! 1x 1500gph is fine given good filtration turnover. And hydor is a great brand ime!
