Hi,
Id like to invest in a powerhead anyway to increase flow as I still think my plants would benefit and hopefully eliminate any dead spots
What size is advisable for my size tank? its a fairly small tank so dont want too it too powerful
HI Alastair
It does come out of the other holes but alot less than the first three, for example the sub surface water movement is noticeable on the first three holes and then after that not at all noticeable.
Had a tetratec EX 1200 before and that was fairly even across the entire bar.
Its...
Good Evening,
I think I know the answer to this question already but Ill put it out there anyways...
I have a bow fronted Juwel 180 and amongst other problems I have a MA filter AquaManta 300 EFX external with the standard spray bar that reaches two thirds along the top of the tank and cant...
Thanks Tom, chatted to the very helpful peeps at my local MA and am considering the Aquamanta EFX 300 aswell which I think is equivalent size etc so am gonna have a look at that the weekend. Not fitting in the cabinet isn't the end of the world but it would be nice.
Sorry for the double post, I was always happy with my EX1200, never had any problems etc but my only downside is that it wont fit in my cabinet!! :(

I am planning to have a good clean over the weekend.
Thanks for the tip though.
My spray bar holes are always getting clogged up with brown gunk and was wondering if drilling the holes bigger would solve this and whether it would have any detrimental effect's on my set up.
Thanks :)
Have just bought a four footer 250 litre tank second hand which came with a Fluval 305 external filter.
It has a spray bar with it and is about 12 inches long with holes every couple of inches. Its currently turning over the water in the tank at a rate of knots with alot of turbulence and water...
Have a Juwel Rekord 80 litre with 5 tetra's, 6 platies, 5 Panda Cories and a Plec.
Have a sand substrate over soil and even after cleaning it two days ago the fish waste collects in fairly large quantity on the bottom of the tank in a certain spot.
Is this normal and would an external...
