Wave maker in a cube aquarium 29 gallon

[ronaldo34]

is it a good idea to have a 6 wat waver maker in my 29 cube aquarium?

Yes

I would say to add 2, 2 is always better than 1. Don't underestimate the importance of flow in a saltwater tank. Even my 32 gallon seahorse tank has 2 powerheads, flow is vital for a healthy tank.

 

[ronaldo34]

Yes

Even if it looks to big ? Is that ok

The hygger one I have is pretty big and I was scared thinking it was to big but it’s a 6 way and one

It depends how powerful it is but it should be fine.

I just have one 3w wave maker on my 29 gallon and it’s more than enough.

The hygger is very bulky, I also don’t like it for that reason. I have it in my 15 right now as a temporary fix, it’s not as powerful as it is bulky. Have a look at sicce voyager nano’s. They are small and the flow is not too powerful. I have 2 of these in my seahorse tank just because they are not too strong, and I find more silent and better quality than hygger but almost the same price. Good luck whatever you choose.

That’s not too big imo. Looks fine

You think where I have it placed is fine ?
