Which Powerhead Would Be Best??

The kit is called Sure Flow 1600 (for the propeller mod) and Sure Grip (for the magnetic holder). Take a look for example at http://www.dtpetsupplies.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=algae+free+sure

There are also a few other brand kits that are basically the same thing.

You dont have to use the magnetic holder, and you dont have to super glue it to the bracket like the instructions say either, 4 zip ties will secure it well. I like the magnets personally, and if your crafty you can even rig up two pumps on one magnet holder.

Be advised though the mod might not be small fish friendly - it has somewhat large openings, and something like a neon tetra could get sucked it. I've worked up a DIY mod to remedy that too... going through 'trials' right now.
