finding TONS of helpful info on here about flow but not specifically what I’m looking for. My question is this: which one do you prefer: the powerhead or the bar? Also, any recommendations for a programable brand? Was thinking Jabeo. Tips?

When you say bar I'm thinking of gyre pumps. I have two 3K bars and they work great. On a 46 gallon bow front tank. I went a hundred and eighty degrees and the bow side is the back. Because of the type of flow, I'm trying to replicate. Laminar flow.
