I have a 30'' deep aquarium and here is a corner that does not receive much circulation. I want to get a powerhead that is very strong. Any ideas?

Depending on your
tank size, this would work fine. They make many different power ones so choose what suits best. I have a nano version at 400gph and it works great at getting the poop to move around into the filter.

I have a 115 Gallon tank so the size of the powerhead isn't an issue. I just need a strong one to keep poop off the ground.
With that big of a tank, you'll want something that pushes 2,000 GPH + or get two smaller one's. My LFS has a Koralia 1,050 in one of their 75 gallon's and it really shocked me how it moved the water. I was planning to get one of 400 GPH Nano's and after seeing that I changed my mind in favor the 1,050 model.
Hydor makes their Magnum series which push upto 3,250 GPH for around $100.00....might be an option.

I've been looking at getting a koralia for my 125 for extra flow. So you guys like them? What are the differences between the models? What size would be good for a 6 foot long tank?
I just put 2 koralia 1050 in my 125 and couldn't be happier. They are miracle workers, especially for poop on the sand.
Well I don't need it to circulate the entire tank just this bottom left side which is pretty dead since my fluval is on the right and the AC110 is right down the center.
The 1050 will be more than strong enough. Mine are at the top and pretty much aimed horizontal, if I aim them down more than a hair they blow sand of the bottom. When I first got mine it was the day before cleaning and I couldn't believe how much poop they blew out from in my plants and in between rocks. Try one at first and get the second later on if you like them.
