I am thinking of adding a powerhead koralia 4 to my 210 G. The glass is 1/2 inch i think (all glass aquarium). Anyone using this powerhead on a 1/2 inch glass

Any other recommendations..thanks

Am also looking for some good air pump...
 
The larger Koralias magnetic holders will work fine on thicker glass...

I had #3s on my 1/2' glass 120 gal... and a neighbor uses #3s on his 92 gal corner which I believe is 1/2" glass... in both cases they stuck very well...

Thanks....

Any other powerheads i can consider besides koralia and maxi jet. I like the koralia but there is a chance that my turtle will chew on it (he chewed on my fx5 intake :irked: when bits of shrimps get stuck between the bars....
 
I like the Koralias for their fan like design...

I don't know of any powerhead that will be turtle chew proof...

Yet a sponge type prefilter will be easier for the turtle to remove frood from, possibly reducing the amount of bites he takes out of / off of it...

I've never tried but I'm sure you could rig a prefilter onto a Koralia...
 
Thanks..i think i will try one Koralia 4 and see how it goes

I wanted to get a hi blow air pump but too expensive..
