Hi
42g Red Sea display // 52g total
Roughly 22”x22”x22”

Do we need a power head?
We think we do.
We will eventually have coral but don’t our little gang of fish want flow to help tank health?

Looking for $100-$200 and bonus points if you can tell when in heck we position it after we own it.

Thanks
 
For that price range maybe a jaebo but you would be better off with an MP10 mounted on the side panel. Surface agitation is essential with reef tanks for gas exchange.
 
Thanks. I searched for a Powerhead 101 or Flow 101 thread on the forum and nothing jumped out. I googled some basics.

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
