Not enough current in my 400gal

[sdadlani]

I've got a 400gal tank with a Fx5 and a 30gal sump set up....

I will be adding another fx5 within the next month and take out the sump set up...

I'm looking for a strong powerhead to get some movement in my tank..


Any suggestions? would a korilia 4 be enough?

koralia 4 pffffff. go for the Koralia Magnum 8

**** man, Koralias are rarely talked about on this forum so I thought the 4 was the highest.... theres an 8?!?!

I got a big siler and a big bass bored as **** cuz theres no current for them

not only is it an 8, its a MAGNUM 8. they recently came out with the magum series 5-8. the 8 pushes over 3200gph

I use a Koralia 4 on my 6ft 125g and I have great water flow. When I first got it I thought it might be too much...but I think its perfect now.

I had trouble with the large fish knocking or tearing the covers off the hydor 4. Woke up one morning to an exposed shaft and a bloody cichlid.

I use a Taam Seio 2600 Super Flow Pump. the big fish don't bang these around as much..
