Looking for opinion on powerhead

[Wilson1985]

So I’m dealing with some Cyano issues and I’ve noticed some dead zones in my 20 gallon cube. Currently have a Jebao ow-10, but there’s limited flow along the sandbed in certain spots and detritus builds up in the back behind the rock work. Considering upgrading to either an eco tech or AI Nero as my main flow and downgrading the jebao to the bottom rear of the tank for sand bed flow. What do folks think ecotech or AI? Or another ?

Have you considered a gyre? Depending on your aquascape you may be able to get all your flow needs taken care of with just one.

i feel like a gyre may be overkill on a 20g cube.

Don't forget The Ice Cap 1k let's you plug one side.

I’ve never looked into the gyre as I assumed it was too large for my small nano cube

I have mp10s and just bought a Nero 5 if it was my only pump I think I would go with the Nero. The flow is much broader, it's easy to set the speed, and action. The wire is in the tank if that is an issue, but it's not bad
