I have a 29 that currently only has 4 yellow labs in it due to loss from power outage. I'm running 2 whisper 40's on it, but I'm wanting to add a little flow around the rockwork in back to keep from having build up of gunk. The substrate is play sand and I don't want a sandstorm in there or have to listen to noise constantly. Maybe I'm asking for too much, but I found this little powerhead on foster & smith and I'm wondering how everybody thinks it will work. I have one of the Azoo Palm filters and like it alot so I thought I'd go with them again. Here's the link>>

There is nothing wrong with a little extra flow in the tank.

A little flow will never hurt your fish, but personally I would advise against that exact model. It seems poorly made, but I could be wrong.

Well I needed to get the order out, so I went ahead and added it in there. We will see how the quality is, if its as good as their little Palm filter it should be ok.
Thanks for your advice. :headbang2::headbang2:

Add the powerhead, but I am not a particular fan of that brand...
