Large aquarium dead spots

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I think an MP 60 is the only thing that will move water from the side to that area in the middle. Air stones would be cheaper. MP60 would be cleaner. I have 2 for a 6X5'. One high, one low.
 
My bottom dwellers keep the crap from accumulating too much just with their normal activity. I would have thought that rays would do the same. My loaches and cory's do the job for me.
 
Aren't MP60s ridiculously priced? What makes them so much better then Korilias???
 
I don't think anything puts out the flow of an MP60. Yes, they are crazy expensive.

There is another company that has some with higher flow rates. Could also put a nice down payment on a car with how much they are. I will stick with Vortechs.

I also use a pair of koralia 3250s(mag 8), they move a lot of water, my golden dorado will chill in the current instead of endlessly swimming a lot of the time, the others wish they could find a dead spot.

I run airstones occasionally in my overflows and sump before I backflush my filter but somewhere in the 770 monster set up thread he mentions that the air stones kept his heaters running a lot more.

Yeah, Oliver Lucannis is the distributor for N America. You have to ask to get the price.
 
I'm going to drop a couple cheap eBay 3200gph pumps in there to see what it does. $40 for 2 pumps can't hurt to try. I don't want crazy flow bc of the discus in the tank but something to stir up the tank a hair.
