Hey guys. Been looking for a new tank. Think I've narrowed it down to a 50 cube (24x24x20) and a 93g cube (30x30x24).

Leaning now towards the 50 gallon since lighting will be a hair less as well as skimmer and tank cost itself.

Which powerheads would be good for this tank ? I'm planning to have a more open aquascape but not extremely open. Would like them in back wall for lower profile in sides. I've always had the Voretchs but looking for a cheaper route in this tank.... would a few Jaebos or Koralias or the cheaper tunzes be good ?

If buying 3-4 powerheads will add up to buying a vortech I'll just get a vortech. But if I can get away with $100 worth powerheads that would be awesome.


Any opinions ?
Thanks
 
I have a couple of rw8/pp8?. jebao's on a 65 cube. Mainly lps with 1 sps everything doing good.
 
I'm using a Gyre 130 in my cube, running about 40%. Lots of movement.
 
Thanks for the replies. I look into both Jaebo and Gyre. The smaller gyre aren't that expensive.
