hi i have a fluval evo 13.5 and i’m wondering what some more experienced reefers would recommend in terms of upgrades for my tank

currently running:
-stock filtration
-stock return pump
-150 w aqueon heater(high wattage because my house gets very cold and 50w won’t cut it)
-hipargero aquaknight A029 led lights
-diy clear acrylic lid to avoid jumpers/maintain salinity

i’m thinking the next upgrade will be a small powerhead. what do you recommend? i don’t want to overwhelm my corals or fish in such a small tank.

Although that is a good photo with fido, a clearer photo with white light would help us spend your money. :cool:

Nice. Another option is to search YouTube for the tank and you could probably find a bunch of stuff that has been customized.

Lights
  • AI prime led
  • Radion XR15
Pump
  • There are several small nano pumps and power heads.
Heater
  • Same with heaters, there are multiple small ones cobalt @vetteguy53081 recommended.

Media

Check in-tank media baskets to see if the have something.
