Recommendation for a small, low flow power head for dead spots.

[glb]

As my corals grow, my tank has some dead spots flow wise. I have a gyre and am looking for small, low flow (or adjustable) power heads to use where the gyre doesn’t reach. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I use 2 nero 3's just for this purpose.

They are small, adjustable, and can move a ton of water if need be.

Thanks! Do you know how low the flow can get? I have a 40g

I run my 2 very low in the tank, and at about 30%, they barely move the sand.

Small Tunzes are bulletproof and last for a very long time. 6040 is low flow and adjustable. If you don't mind constant flow, there are many other choices for even less (6015, 6020, 6025)

also, I have been playing with a Tunze nanostream in a 15G WB, but have tried it in "that dead corner" of the 180 to good effect.
