Powerheads question

[gmr7494]

I have a Cadlights 22 gallon that I'm just starting up. I purchased 2 Koralia nanos, but now I'm hearing that it's not going to be enough water movement for my tank and that I should just upgrade to a Koralia 1. Any opinions on this?

I am always for more flow and more turnover, but depending on what you are wanting to keep in the tank, those could work.

Id trade them up for at least a 2 k1s or a k2 and a k1

instead of getting rid of them since you just got them you could just use the 2 nanos and add another powerhead to the tank

Get a Vortech MP20. I have one on my CADlights 39g Pro and it is perfect! I have 2 MP40w's on my 120 as well.

I was thinking about that but it'll be too crowded in there. I think I might just go get a K2.

I've thought about the MP10. A little to expensive. Maybe down the road.

i was really dissapointed with the koralia nano. very weak! i just bought my gf a mp10 for her 10g nano and that thing packs a punch!

MP20 or MP10 if you can afford it like the other say. But being on a tight budget, just get one K1 and run it with your nano. If it's not enough, get another K1.

Did you use them, I would try them out they are rated for 10-15 gallon tanks and you do have 2.

OK. I've saved up enough money to buy an MP10. In comparison to 2 Koralia Nanos, well...there is no comparison. The MP10 is perfect for my tank. Superb water flow and very easy to use. If you have the money, just get the MP10 or even the MP20.
